Dear Editor:

The group of characters who comprise the Woodchucks have long prided themselves by cutting, splitting, stacking and delivering wood to clients on the peninsula who still heat with wood. Many of these clients are older and have limited financial means. Those of us who gather at least twice a week to process wood take sincere pride in helping others ... carrying on the original purpose of the Woodchucks. Unfortunately that pride was seriously damaged Saturday, Dec. 3!

Three of us were loading the trailer and making deliveries to clients. As we were loading the third trailer, a call was received for us to deliver a half cord to the Fisherman's Wharf for the Chamber of Commerce fire pits. It was bad enough ... then when you consider it was from the local state representative ... well, I'll let you figure.
