Dear Friends,
It is with great sorrow that I let you know that the Catskill Mountain News has temporarily suspended publication. A series of technical, staffing and financial issues that include the electronic hijacking of our e-mails and archives as well as plagiarism of our work has forced us to step back and re-visit what we are doing and how we are doing it.
We hope to be back on the newsstands and in your mailboxes, but are uncertain at this time when or if that can happen.
If the paper can return to publication, all existing subscriptions will be honored and extended. If not, we will advocate for the return of un-used subscription fees. If you wish to receive e-mail updates from me, please provide your e-mail address and a note specifically asking for e-mail updates from Joan Lawrence-Bauer.
We thank you for your loyalty and hope for better days ahead. Until then, feel free to make contact as follows:
By e-mail at: Cnewsjlb@gmail.com
By phone at: 845-586-2601 (The phone will be busy, please leave a message)
By post at: PO Box 515, Arkville, NY 12406
Office hours will be by appointment only as we work through the challenging days ahead.
