I've lived in this county as far back as I remember. I've seen ups and downs, and am glad to have played a role in building toward where our county can be. My roots are here, my family is here, and I believe our common destiny is rooted in our efforts. Together with dedicated volunteers and business leaders Middleburgh and other parts of the area have seen a renaissance-- one that I believe can be grown throughout the county.
In short, I want to do to local media what we did for Middleburgh.
Earlier this month I purchased the Schoharie News to give our county's residents a choice. I've decided not to run for another term as Mayor and built a team ready to cover the entire county's events. We've opened an office in Schoharie to be more responsive to residents and hold public officials to account.
I come with connections but no biases. Expect hard-hitting investigations and features meant to focus on issues that are currently ignored. To start, I don't plan on taking a salary. I'm hoping to reinvest our funds to grow our joint efforts. I hope that you can be a part of this effort to shine a light on many issues affecting the county and their potential solutions.
The Schoharie News asks for your help. The first print edition will hit the presses on Friday, October 21st. The first two issues will be mailed to every household and business in Schoharie County. Our page has information on subscriptions and advertising. Both mailed and online subscriptions are available. We would love your press releases, ideas, and suggestions to make this endeavor a success for all of us.
I hope you'll join our effort.
