Weekly Update: A Note From Your Publisher 10.26.2023

Happy Thursday, welcome to this weekly edition of A Note From Your Publisher! Happy Halloween weekend, we hope everyone has a safe and fun Halloween. My soon to be 17 year old thinks he is too old to trick or treat so I will only have the two younger ones to take out. There are a ton of local events this weekend as well we plan to stop by. I'm sure we will be tossing candy again around Easter like last year. Anyone interested in the extras? Kidding...not really!

Businesses can now sign up for a variety of sponsorships by creating a business directory. We will then reach out to you to get images and set up a contract. You can learn more here. This is also how local businesses can sign up to participate in our 2023 Holiday Guide.
