Dear Editor,

We just returned home to Sekiu after participating in a lively “Meet & Greet” with Nate Tyler, who is running for State Representative. About 25 people filled the room at the Aquatic Center building.

After some initial remarks introducing himself, Nate fielded questions from the group. The event became a participatory group conversation as West End community members asked questions, listened to Nate’s opinions and each other, and discussed possible solutions.

Looking forward to better health care, workforce development, and housing opportunities for the West End.

Dr. Nancy Messmer, Sekiu
