Letter: Join 4-H today

Stand up for the environment. Stand up for the trees. Stand up for the birds. Stand up for the bees and insects.

As much as this funding will help, you should do what you can to prepare your own home against wildfire.
Letter: Thank you for Women’s Week
The combined talents of Cecelia Ponzini, Brittney Peterson, Katie Khera and Caitlin Robinett Jachimowicz once again welcomed the entire community to a series of events highlighting strong families through education and confidence building, particularly for women and girls.
Letter to the editor: Sense of community
Our deepest sorrow and sympathy is extended to the victims and families of those shot and otherwise injured at the Gilroy Garlic Festival. We honor and thank the men and women who acted quickly to help shelter and comfort those at the event.

The notion that mental illness drives the current spate of mass shootings is a dangerous oversimplification.
Editorial: Reclaim our public spaces
We have read about the horrific incidents around the country for years now. Locations like Columbine, Virginia Tech, Sandy Hook, Orlando, Las Vegas Strip and Parkland have been etched into our collective memory and will be henceforth associated with senseless loss of life. Never for a moment did we expect Gilroy or the Garlic Festival to join that list.
