Our last issue of April will be out tomorrow, and that can only mean one thing: May will soon be here! May is definitely going to be a busy season with school board and budget votes, which are planned for May 20. If you are a candidate in the seven districts our newspaper covers—North Rose-Wolcott (NR-W), Red Creek, Clyde-Savannah, Lyons, Sodus, Cato-Meridian, and Hannibal—feel free to submit a letter to the editor, 500 words or less. We also will accept letters to the editor from area residents backing a candidate or administrators encouraging district residents to approve the budget. Again, these are 500 words or less.

If you missed out for the April 30 edition, don’t worry, we will still accept letters for the May 7 and May 14 editions, but the May 14 paper will be your last chance to send a letter to the editor regarding board and budget votes ahead of the election. Come over to our office at 6784 Main St., Red Creek, to drop off your letter, or, if you prefer email over “snail mail,” ship it over to [email protected]. Good luck to all candidates!

In this issue of Lakeshore News, we are paying tribute to the one, the only Don Hartley, the man responsible for leading the Red Creek Mules men’s soccer team to six state championships. Read along with us as we pay tribute to a man described as a pillar of the Red Creek community. To dive into the story of this celebrated sports figure, you can purchase our paper—out now—at plenty of locations in Wayne and Cayuga Counties, including the Pit Stop locations in Red Creek and North Victory, Bayside Grocery in Fair Haven, and the 104 Store.

Due to space constraints, we could not hear from every one of Coach Hartley’s players to help us tell the story of his illustrious career and legacy. If you have a Coach Hartley story you want to share, you are welcome to send a letter to the editor (500 words or less) describing the impact he had on you, whether you played for him or against him or never played a sport. Friends of Coach Hartley are also welcome to share a letter to the editor. You can send your letter by email to [email protected] or drop it off to our office located at 6784 Main St., Red Creek. Again, all are welcome to join us as we remember Coach Hartley.
