Dear Editor thanks pour in for a successful Terry County Swimming Pool season. Bill Grant praises commissioners, staff, sponsors, and volunteers from Bobby Floyd to the Rotary Club, Brownfield News coverage, and the park crew.

A reader named Mickey Hansard commends Paper'n Ink for travel features and his son’s engagement and marriage columns. He also expresses thanks for defending freedom of speech and asks the paper to keep readers updated.
Irene Rieck urges keeping downtown Brownfield brick streets amid plans to replace them with tarmac. She argues bricks endure wear, heat fluctuations, and heavy truck traffic better, preserving the town’s unique historic character against a trend to discard older infrastructure.
Dear Editor, I urge a new policy for districting. County borders should define districts to count weevils in traps. People from other counties travel to Terry to count. Terry trappers go elsewhere. Explain why current setup is needed. If you have pertinent information please educate me. Sincerely L S Waddell.
