Thanks for Camp Unity story | Letter

Published 1:15 pm Friday, August 21, 2015

Thank you for your Aug. 14 article on Camp Unity Eastside (CUE) and their open house held on Aug. 15. The assembly of the DecaDome by CUE members Thursday went extremely well and it withstood the following day’s drenching rain, keeping the occupants dry and comfortable. On Saturday, many community members visited, commented and ate great food.

The article by Samantha Pak was completely accurate and well rounded. It was interesting to read comments from the Redmond police and Pastor Todd Puckett of Redwood Family Church. (The church deserves much credit.)

Quotes from diverse sources added to the article. This is the kind of community based newspaper coverage that is so valuable and, in fact, irreplaceable..

Several people mentioned your article when they visited the open house. The kind of community reporting that the Redmond Reporter provides cannot be duplicated by “blogs.”  Democracy depends on an informed citizenry and the Redmond Reporter and its sister papers are the keystones. Thanks for your excellent coverage.
