Letters to the Editor

Lincoln Daily News welcomes letters of appreciation, information and opinion on matters pertaining to the community. 
 
Controversial issues:
As a community we need to be able to talk openly about matters that affect the quality of our lives. The most effective and least offensive manner to get your point across is to stick to the issue and refrain from commenting on another person's opinion. Letters that deviate from focusing on the issue may be rejected or edited and marked as such.

To the editor:

Our organization has been serving the community as a local chapter of the Jaycees for the past 60 years. Over the last several years we have seen membership decline and have been struggling to complete our community projects. We have decided to discontinue our affiliation with the Jaycees. Moving forward we hope to keep our organization going with a new name and a new mission which would still include serving the local community through some of our current projects along with some new ones. This would also allow us to open up our membership to a wider age group and dedicate more of our resources locally.

[to top of second column in this letter]

We would like to thank every past member of our organization, every volunteer, every community member, and every business who has contributed in some way over the past 60 years which has allowed us to accomplish so many amazing things!

Perry Payne
Lincoln Jaycees
