Letter to the Editor

Thanks for support at accident

I want to submit a public "thank you" to the men who helped me at the tennis courts late Sunday afternoon on the LaCroix Trail.

My 11-year-old daughter wrecked her bike and had a terrible bleeding nose. At least four men helped with towels for a compress and helped support her as we called for help. One of you donated a beach towel as we made our way to the road.

Thanks for making sure that we were OK. My daughter has a broken nose but is otherwise OK. I deeply appreciate your help. Because of you, a traumatizing experience was a little less traumatizing.
