CDA: Dystopian picture off base

| May 24, 2024 1:00 AM

In reading K. Buechner’s post in Sunday’s Coeur d’Alene Press, I felt almost depressed at the picture that was painted of the current state of Coeur d’Alene, the activities available, and the businesses that were named.

As an Idaho native of 60+ years, I, too, have seen the ups and downs of our fair city. Our area has many more activities for all ages than K. Buechner’s dystopian picture portrayed. Our city’s park & rec departments, Kroc Center, and numerous church and civic groups all have a plethora of fun and rewarding activities. Let’s not forget the theater groups, pickleball and skate parks, and sports (both indoor and outdoor) that are available to all.
