Letter: Get Involved if You're Unhappy

The Pilot’s “Letters to the Editor” indicate that most Pilot Contributors are uninformed or misinformed about the persons filling the District Board of Director positions in the Brookings area. These elected Board of Director positions are filled by unpaid volunteers from that District for a term of four years. These volunteers make decisions for our districts that are not always in agreement with the public’s wishes. Being human, they can also make unwise personal decisions. Remember, these are elected volunteers. If you don’t like what they are doing, quit complaining and volunteer for their District Board of Director position. You have many local districts to volunteer for: Harbor Sanitary, Harbor Water, Port of Brookings Harbor and the Fire Districts of Harbor, Cape Ferrelo, and the Winchuck. Elections are in the near future so volunteer and be an answer to your problem and not just a complainer!
