What to know:

• Published weekly in print and eventually online as well, all free of charge.
• Delivered to all households and businesses in the two towns.
• Includes local news, community events, letters to the editor, and more.
• Prepared by an editor, a staff reporter, as well as community writers.

The tagline, “It’s in your hands,” reflects its mission: empowering our towns with dependable, fact-based news to spur informed civic engagement and collaboration in the arts, sports, and more.

Why it matters to us:

The League of Women Voters believes H-W News will unify and strengthen our community—and provide opportunities for us to share the great work we do with more people. You may remember our speaker event last year, "Local Journalism as a Cornerstone of Democracy",link to watch, if you missed it. We truly believe that it is fundamental to an informed electorate and engaged citizenry and are thrilled to see this launch come to fruition.

Look out for the first issue this Saturday, and join us in supporting this vital addition to our community!
