This month, the town of Windsor is getting its own newspaper — and it’s free.
Windsor Weekly, which is to debut March 28, will feature stories and photos on town and county issues, schools, civic and social clubs, businesses, sports and any other interests that concern the people.
A cooperative effort of The Tidewater News and The Suffolk News-Herald, it’s a product that has been in the making for the past few years.
“A newspaper for the Windsor community is long overdue,” said Tony Clark, publisher of The Tidewater News and the newly formed Windsor Weekly. “Windsor is an absolutely terrific place, and we’re just so proud to be a part of bringing Windsor Weekly to life.
“The initial reaction from the community has been incredibly positive,” Clark added. “It’s a lot of fun to bring a newspaper to life in Windsor and see the reaction of the people it will serve. I expect Windsor Weekly will be a tremendous success.”
Distribution sites will be announced later.
