To the editor:

I am a Darien resident and fan of Cristina Mittermeier, a conservationist, photographer, and co-founder of Sea Legacy.  She describes the attitude too many have as “S.el.f.i.e.” or “someone else is fixing it, eh?” Every day, we see what kind of government we got when apathy set in and, after the 2018 election, what people who wanted to counterbalance the Trump administration earned from becoming informed and engaged in the process. When we don’t show up, what affects us doesn’t reflect us and our government affects all of us in so many ways. Last Sunday, the Darien Democrats held an open house at Upper Crust Bakery and Cafe on the Post Road to grow the party and encourage civic participation on all levels.
