County Commissioner applauds new PAC's ice cream social

To the Editor,

I wanted to acknowledge how well the Ice Cream Social held by the new political action committee the Neighbors United for Progress was this last Saturday.

Holding it immediately after the parade was a wonderful idea and gave people something further to do after the parade had ended. It was an excellent addition to this year’s activities and should be considered as something to have every year.

As a member of a political action committee myself I can appreciate the time effort and energy that went into making this event happen.

In a self-governing society such as ours, civic engagement is crucial. We applaud every effort made to encourage this.

Sincerely,

Charles Amerein

Dayton, Wash.
