Letters from page 24A
platform of business growth, collection
of tax revenue and a closer relationship
with the school district doesn’t fall under
the jurisdiction or directorship of the
CSD Board.
I would like to close by saying:
shame on you, Ruth Roberts. I believe it
is your job to report the news fairly and
without bias. It is certainly your right to
prefer one candidate over another, but I
would expect you to act as a professional
journalist and refrain from showing that
preference in the articles you author for a
publicly read newspaper.

SEED sprouts family fun
Editor:
A wonderful time was had by all
at the SEED Foundation’s Family Fun
Picnic Event on Sept. 6. The event was
organized as a thank-you to the entire
community for all it does to support
quality education at all three schools of
the Byron Union School District.
The day’s entertainment included an
afternoon of water fun in the Discovery
Bay Athletic Club pool and on the 60foot
infl atable water slide. The Excelsior
Middle School Leadership played the
tunes to keep the picnic rockin’ and the
fun-fi lled day also included a rubber
ducky race and a raffl e.
Free hot dogs, chips and drinks
were enjoyed, along with treats from
local restaurants and businesses. Timber
Point students Kathleen Burnight (third
grade) and Haley Bostard (fourth grade),
and Discovery Bay students Bailey Dow
(fourth grade) and Bella Krassow (fi rst
grade) were the talented winners of the
coloring contest featuring a caricature of
our three distinguished school principals.
The SEED Foundation acknowledges
and thanks the following sponsors
for their generosity and support in helping
to make its fi rst Family Fun Picnic
Event a great success: Aladino’s Pizza
– Discovery Bay; Boards-N-More; Brentwood
Car Wash; Coca Cola; Cookie Lee
Jewelry – Darylnne Fu; Dash – Jack and
Nancy Snaveley; Discovery Bay Athletic
