BRATTLEBORO-The following statement from the Zon Eastes Campaign is in response to Delores Clark's letter in the Aug. 7 edition of The Commons:
Ms. Clark's letter presumes a timeline that is incorrect.
To clarify, Zon Eastes left his positions at the Brattleboro Music Center and the Windham Orchestra in 2006, well before any reports of Zeke Hecker's shocking and repulsive behavior emerged.
If anyone was "advised not to have him as an orchestra member," that advice could not have been given to Zon.
It is disappointing that Ms. Clark has chosen to spread misinformation.
