LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

June 9, 2004 The Waynedale News Staff

Dear Editor,

I belong to Boy Scout Troop #876 in Savannah, GA. I spend the summers in Indiana and take part in Waynedale’s Troop #344 and go to Camp Little Turtle with them.

I enjoy reading the Scout News in The Waynedale News and I liked reading about Troop #344 winning the Klondike Derby last winter. My grandparents send me the articles about the troop.

Dear
Cindy,

The Girl Scouts who took part were members of Troops 904, 394, 850, and 704.‑

Most were Brownies and marching in their first parade.‑ The girls recited their Girl Scout Promise as they marched.‑‑ We all were very pleased by the wonderful response from the people of Waynedale to the girls.‑ I don’t think the girls ever expected applause!‑ The girls and leaders wore the names of deceased‑veterans.

They were all very impressed by the ceremony.‑ I do believe they have a better understanding about what Memorial Day is all about.

Sincerely, Linda Chrisman

These Strong Female Leads Grapple With Ethics ~ At The Movies With Kasey
On the heels of Women’s History Month, a string of movies dropped that tell the stories of women making changes, both political and personal. Among these projects, I found a couple of movies featuring strong performances and thin plots as well as a gem of a coming-of-age story. On Netflix, Shirley follows the 1972 presidential campaign ...
April Is The 4th Month Of The Year… We Think
The month of April has a variety of titles, meanings, and sayings, and some are contradictory with each other. For example, April is a spring month in the northern half of the world and a fall month in the southern half. The month of April goes way back. Before January and February were added to the ...
Wishes, Politics, & Expatriates Shine On The Small Screen ~ At The Movies With Kasey
Whether you are in the mood for a classic romcom, a bizarre satire, or a moody miniseries, the major streamers have new content for you. In Netflix’s Irish Wish, Maddie (Lindsay Lohan) has fallen in love with an author whose book she edited so well she basically wrote a best seller for him. The writer, Paul ...
Slow & Steady: A Smart Way To Invest
You’ve probably heard stories about fortunate investors who “get in the ground floor” of a new, hot company and quickly make a fortune. But while these things may happen, they are exceedingly rare and often depend on hard-to-duplicate circumstances — and they really don’t represent a viable way of investing for one’s goals. A far ...
Oscar Nominees In Theaters Or At Home ~ At The Movies With Kasey
The close of awards season brings a peculiar moment with few good new movies, but award-winners getting rereleased or hitting streaming platforms. I write from the week before the Academy Awards, but the paper will not come out until afterward, so I am not making predictions about wins. Instead, I want to celebrate some incredible ...
