It's that time again to ring out the old and ring in the new year.
These years seem to be rolling right on by. We are beginning our fifth year as your community correspondents and look forward to reporting your community events in 1995.
Our schedule will remain the same in the new year. If you would like to see your news in the column, please contact us a week in advance of your event. We prepare our column at the beginning of the week for the next week.
Our telephone numbers are at the end of the column for your convenience. Have a safe and happy New Year.
