Hello, Barry County! We wanted to give an update on the delivery of our paper. First, we will still be shipping to homes in Cassville and Shell K**b, but can no longer send to names and addresses in Barry County outside of these two towns. We are working on getting our paper into multiple gas stations and stores around Barry County for readers to pick up for free in the meantime, and hope to be able to send our paper to your mailboxes again as soon as possible. We are still working on a plan to deal with delivery issues, and apologize for any inconveniences this may have caused. Second, we appreciate how much love and support has been sent our way, and know it may be disappointing to miss the paper. We hope to remedy this for our readers and our communities. As always, our e-Edition and stories are free to read on our website as well to help keep the public informed. Lastly, we want you to know the opinions and comments from our readers and advertisers are of the upmost importance. The readers and the communities we serve are as important as any staff. We can’t do this without you! Thank you so much to everyone who has been helping us spread the news and updates and has been kind through all of it, you all have been great. We are hoping the New Year will bring us a new restored plan that will be able to get our printed editions back into the hands of the people. Rest assured that we see you and are working on getting the paper back in the homes around all of Barry County.
