Comments on: COMMENTARY: Setting the Registers to Zero https://capecharleswave.com/2014/05/commentary-setting-the-registers-to-zero/ Your Online Newspaper in Cape Charles, Virginia Fri, 07 Aug 2015 21:55:09 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=4.1 By: Tim Krawczel https://capecharleswave.com/2014/05/commentary-setting-the-registers-to-zero/#comment-56477 Sat, 10 May 2014 11:52:36 +0000 http://capecharleswave.com/?p=13019#comment-56477 I have a strong suspicion that Cape Charles is a food desert. Here is something we can do about it — year ’round: There are several vacant buildings that could house this endeavor for benefit to an entrepreneur and the community alike.

Thank you for beginning the healing process.

( I use our yard make-over as an example; the task seemed daunting at first, we dug in, created a clean palate and made decisions with the information we had at the time, most of the plants thrived, some let us know they were not in the right place and others said loud in clear I am outta here! We regrouped and did what we thought was best)

I think we all need to remember, our town staff, public servants and volunteers are often HARD jobs for people with good hearts. In my opinion no one gets up in the morning as a public servant, volunteer or town of CC staff and says ” I want to do an awful job for the citizens of Cape Charles today!” Just the opposite in fact, I think we all love this gem of a town and we really want to see it thrive!

Karen, it is exciting to have you here in town full time and I know you, like David, will make a positive and a encouraging difference in the community. I encourage those who have strong convictions on how things should be done to “dig in” and get involved…we need lots of volunteers to continue to make Cape Charles a great place to live and visit!

All should take heed of the points made — Thanks for composing and publishing!

Comments on The Wave illustrate reactions as diverse as our electorate…contempt, denial, skepticism, elation. I applaud Mrs. Gay for her thoughtful commentary and defy anyone, supporters of “the old team” or “the new team”, to have any argument with the points she outlines. The electorate has made their choice, so let’s respect their voice and show our support for “the democratically elected team”.
