The article “Point Reyes Days” (August)
was most compelling. Having been to many
of the places mentioned, and being a supporter
of the national park system, I found new information presented; the story reminded me to
visit the lighthouse again and other areas that
I have missed. SHERYL NELSON, NOVATO, VIA ONLINE
More Champs
I was disappointed to see you miss one of my
favorite Olympians (Currents, “Community
Champs,” August). Ted Murphy of San Anselmo
won a silver medal for rowing in the 2000
Sydney Olympics, and besides all that, he is an
all-around great guy. MAGGIE MCCANN, LUCAS VALLEY
A very notable omission in Marin Magazine ’s
list of local Olympians is Steve Clark (he lived
in Tiburon, not sure where in Marin today).
He won three Olympic swimming gold medals
in 1964 and would have won two more in 1960
under current rules. BARR Y SPI TZ, SAN ANSELMO
Eds.: We heard about even more Olympic
medalists from Marin; here they are.
Ellen Estes, Novato ( Water Polo); Tim Evans,
Larkspur (Rowing); Scott Munn, Larkspur
(Rowing); Ken Flax (Hammer Throw); Jake
Highland, Novato (Volleyball); Jennifer Azzi,
Mill Valley (Basketball).
Open Waters
Thanks for your story on dredging (“Shallow
Waters,” August). Consider a feature on the
dredging of Corte Madera Creek, where the
Larkspur Marina deepwater homeown-ers have successfully established their
own assessment district. We are currently
dredging and have done so successfully
for four years. This benefits recreational
users as well as residents along the creek.
