All year long, I’ve had the privilege of working with a small group of talented professionals who are committed to covering neighborhoods right here in Virginia’s Potomac Communities.
They don’t do it for much money, or fame, or simply because they have nothing better to do. They do it because this is their hometown. These unique people have helped PotomacLocal.com grow into the community news source it has become today.
Tonight, I’m holding a special dinner for this small group of talented professionals to say thank you. I’ll also encourage them to continue pushing us to find ways to tell better stories, as well as new ways to reach out to you, our readers.
I’ll also encourage you, our readers, to keep telling us how we’re doing and tell us how we can do better.
In this time of large corporations and media consolidation, and in this area where a local community newspaper isn’t even printed in your hometown, I hope you will continue to support an independent, unbiased and unfiltered news source.
As we move toward Thanksgiving and the holiday season, here’s to all of you for helping to make this past year bright.
