Don’t let ’em roam

This letter is simply a plea to all dog owners to not allow their canine friends to have free reign over the neighborhood.

Grateful parents

Good morning to all of the most wonderful folk on Martha's Vineyard.

Such a success

I thank all the people who were so helpful in making the Minnesingers's recent performance tour to Prague and Paris such a success.

Roundabout is not needed

Does everyone realize what is about to happen at the intersection of Edgartown and Barnes Roads in Oak Bluffs? The state is close to building a roundabout.

Many helped

A candidate explains further

It is indeed a difficult task to encapsulate what one stands for and one's accomplishments in two small paragraphs.

Great work

Another long winter on Martha's Vineyard is finally just about over, but for those who participated in the activities at the YMCA, it has been a winter well spent.
