Now is the time for one of Norwalk's many wonderful, civic-minded organizations to step up and go above and beyond the normal scope of their work. Norwalk is in danger of going through the Fourth of July celebration without fireworks this year. The Jaycees announced in January that because the burden raising the $13,000 it takes to put on the fireworks display is too great (even with $3,000 guaranteed from the city) it would be moving in a different direction. Since then, the city has contacted several service organizations in hopes their patriotic sensibilities would be stirred and they would serve as the cavalry, riding to the city's rescue.

I would like to comment on the Reflector's editorial "Don't blame business for moving jobs." It is my belief that the Reflector is failing to see the complete picture concerning job loss and a company's need for profits. I don't know of anyone who would disagree with the statement that a business is not a charity and that they need to make money. Where I think we fail is in accepting their seemingly endless need for more and more money, at the expense of loyal employees and local economic stability.
