America is built on innovation and doing things better. We don’t wait for it to come to us — we create it. During a State of the Union address, former President Barack Obama said, “We are the nation that put cars in driveways and computers in offices; the nation of Edison and the Wright brothers; of Google and Facebook. In America, innovation doesn’t just change our lives; it’s how we make a living.”

That statement — “In America, innovation doesn’t just change our lives; it’s how we make our living.” — is something we come back to over and over again.

At the newspaper we know a thing or two about innovation and change. Just a few short years ago, the newspaper was only available in print. Times changed, you spoke, we listened, and in the American tradition of innovation, we changed.

We still print the newspaper and deliver it like clockwork every Wednesday and Friday. These days we just give you more options. If you want it printed and delivered to your door, we can and still do that. If you want to read it online, no problem. We have a robust website that is also mobile-friendly for reading on your cellphone, laptop or tablet. If you are the social media type of person, we have you covered there too with our Facebook page and Twitter account.

We are always listening, willing to adapt and change, and we want your input. We invite you to share with us; let us know what you’d like to see in your community newspaper. If something works, we want to hear about it. The same thing goes if it doesn’t work.
