Too much push to bring events to quiet island

Thank you, Kate Severson, for your letter (“Visitors affect residents who prefer Vashon’s quiet nature,” Sept. 23).

I also realize change is inevitable; however, many have moved here precisely because the island was a quiet, unassuming place to live. It clearly seems there is a push by some to alter this ambience in favor of more activities, noise and congestion.

Maybe The Beachcomber should find out how islanders feel and be more sensitive to their viewpoints when writing editorials.
