Time for fishing

WILLIAMS — We visited White Horse Lake and found that it filled quite well from our fair winter weather. It was restocked last month with trout.

Camping space directly around the lakes are fee-based camping spaces, but they do have free day use areas. Along the road to White Horse there are free camping areas laid out.

The trails to Bill Williams Mountain are currently open. The road to Buckskinner and to the Santa Fe Dam are also open.

It seems that all is in order for a good camping, fishing and hiking season in Williams. Some are already taking advantage of the opportunities as space are filling up.

Camping allowed downtown

Camp out at BBQ event.

WILLIAMS—The City Council has been trying to destroy the Kiwanis Swap Meet for the last few years. The swap meet is a traditional affair that occurs over the summer and pays for Kiwanis events such as the holiday dinner every year and scholarships.

The latest attempt is to not allow “camping” at the swap meet. The swap meet is set up clear on the west end of town out of view of the public.

Apparently the Californians in the Chamber did not like the Freedom is Not Free mural downtown.

Fortunately, camping is allowed downtown for the Northern Arizona barbeque weekend.

We believe in the First Amendment to the Constitution and that it protects speech that we do not want to hear, not speech that we want to hear. However, we do not believe that protects personal slurs, slander or libel.

Please understand that we reserve the right to edit or delete comments which contain what we consider personal attacks rather than specific useful information. Especially since commentators are not obligated to leave their full or even real names. We cannot set a specific set of guidelines, so please feel free to leave a comment with the understanding that we reserve the right to edit what we consider personal attacks.

This does not apply to so-called "hate speech" given in generalized terms. If one or two people do not like what you say, that does not make it hate speech.

We will gladly post e-mails or letters to the editors so long as you give your full name and address so that we can verify it is from a real person. We will not post the address at your request.

While some may consider this "cowardly," we consider it responsible journalism. We are trying to bring you information you need in a responsible manner.

Thank you for your understanding.
