EXCEL: Came through again for music program
Thank you to the Excel committee for your continued support of our music program in our community and here at Skyway Elementary!
ELECTION: Vote for Tenbrink and McAndrew
As a proud employee of the Coeur d’Alene School District, and the mother of two current Coeur d’Alene School District students, I urge you to vote for Heather Tenbrink and Jimmy McAndrew in the upcoming school board election on Nov. 7. Heather has proven herself to be an intelligent, reasonable board member who works hard to make sure the students in the Coeur d’Alene School District have everything they need to become successful, contributing members of our community.
Gratitude for our newspaper carriers
October 7th was Newspaper Carrier Day, a day to honor the devoted team of people who make it possible for us to maintain the flow of information in our community.
MEMORIAL DAY: They gave their lives for our freedom
As we are about to celebrate Memorial Day, for those who have never served in the military and have no clue what it took in World War I and World War II to secure our freedom.
OPINION: Rejecting racism and the status quo
Party of Lincoln must root out racism
MY TURN: Come together against the tide
An open invitation to serve on the side of light
GRATITUDE: Garden Club generosity goes far
A huge shout out to the Coeur d’Alene Garden Club for their continual support of the Hayden Meadows Greenhouse. Their generosity contributes to all 500+ students who actively grow vegetables and flowers for the local community, our school gardens, and our local food banks.
LAKELAND SCHOOL LEVIES: Vote yes
On May 16, you have the opportunity to support your local schools and surrounding community by voting yes. As a renewal of the existing supplemental levy, our continued financial support will have a direct impact by funding safety officers, extracurricular activities, full-day kindergarten, staff, security, electives and building maintenance/improvements. These programs need us!
OPINION: Republicans for health care
If you are a regular reader of the Coeur d’Alene Press, you are well aware of the divisive politics railing our community. As a long-standing North Idaho Republican, it was this division and subsequent damage to our community that motivated me and more than 80 other local longtime Republicans to form the North Idaho Republicans group. It’s our belief that we will do more good for our community by developing thoughtful ways to improve our local institutions and quality of life rather than inciting fear and bringing institutions like our community college, schools and libraries to the brink of destruction.
Gratitude for our newspaper carriers
As President of the Hagadone Corporation's Communications Division, I wish to share my sincere pride and gratitude. This year, we celebrate the 131st Anniversary of the Coeur d'Alene Press, and today, we celebrate the dedicated men and women who have ensured the Voice of Kootenai County reaches our readers and subscribers for more than a century.
ELECTION: Vote for Griffin, Schroeder and Gibbons
Do not let our School District be held hostage to the political divisiveness we’ve seen in West Bonner County School District and the NIC board. I have lived in the Silver Valley for 50+ years. I support our public education system and the very dedicated and hardworking employees in School District 391. It’s easy to take for granted what you have until you don’t have it. Democracy, public education, and public libraries are just a few of the systems that serve all of us and are crucial to the functioning of successful communities.

JULY NIBJ: Small but mighty
This month, we are spotlighting small, local businesses. These ventures enrich our lives with their entrepreneurial offerings and character while contributing to the economic vitality of our North Idaho neighborhoods.
SPORTS OFFICIALS: Deserve respect, gratitude
All three of the schools in our wonderful community have excellent sports programs. All of the coaches, parents and players get a lot of recognition for their support and hard work, but the real heroes of every game, match or tournament are the officials. They make each and every game possible for our sports programs, but they do not seem to get the recognition they deserve.
COUNTY PARK and REC PLAN: An urgent need
I am writing to express my concern about the lack of a comprehensive park and recreation master plan in Kootenai County, a critical issue highlighted by the recent rejection of the open space bond proposal on Nov. 7. While I voted against the bond proposal due to the absence of a publicly supported plan, I commend our Board of County Commissioners for putting the matter to a vote.
ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION: A national crisis
Our Panhandle, a rather unique shape, is a beautiful part of this world. One of the primary reasons is our people who call this land home. My experience living here since 2001 is that folks are glad to be right here. People here are chill. They like/want to be here. As we grow, we welcome those who want to embrace who we are and what we have to offer. Take time to listen and assimilate.
MY TURN: Vote with prairie, aquifer in mind
Without natural resource protection, our paradise is lost.
OPINION: Idaho Republicans reclaim roots amid division
Precinct committee challengers understand role as workers, not representatives
HOSPICE OF NORTH IDAHO: A wonderful resource
My family and I would like to extend our sincere thanks and gratitude to the staff of Hospice of North Idaho and the Schneidmiller Hospice House for the care given to our loved one in our time of need.
