This just in from the Nebraska Press Association: "On Saturday (7/29), Nebr Press Assn was notified that the Sutton Clay County News newspaper office building was severely damaged by a serious windstorm that hit the town early Saturday morning.

According to reports from those helping on the scene, the office building has been condemned and will need to be demolished. Clay Co. News General Manager, Tory Duncan, and staff have set up temporary offices in the Sutton Community Building.

NPA will send updates as we have more information, and let you know if/how members can help."
So sorry to hear this. Prayers for our fellow journalists.
