THANK YOU, CARRIERS. We know how hard it is to deliver day in and day out through all kinds of weather. On behalf of all our members, and the staff of The Frederick News-Post, we thank you for all you’re doing in these challenging times.

FEATURED CARRIER

TERI OAKS Teri Oaks has been a dedicated carrier for The Frederick News-Post for over 30 years.

She delivers 300-plus papers through the week and more than 600 on Sunday. Over the years, she has gotten to know many of her customers. We recently received the following note about Terri from one of them, Connie of Frederick:

Proudly serving our guests since 1996

www.plamondonhospitalitypartners.com

“[Teri] is always dependable ... helping to provide a sense of normalcy and contact with important local news in these most challenging times.

“Teri went above and beyond the call of duty during the COVID-19 crisis. One morning I went out to get the paper and found a note attached to it. The note was from Teri and asked if we needed any help, and gave her phone number. Such a level of compassion and reaching out to others deserves to be recognized.”

In-home caregivers are true heroes!

Thank you for all that you do.

May God’s love and protection cover you.

Essential news.

Especially now.

Accurate, well-reported news and community information is always essential.

Now, the news can be life-saving.

We’re proud of how the staff of The Frederick News-Post has responded to the COVID-19 crisis. Whether working from home or still coming to our plant for essential production and delivery work, News-Post employees have stepped up to provide Frederick County the coverage and delivery we all need at this uncertain time.

It’s a team effort: • Thanks to the reporters, editors and photographers who make sense of this rapidly changing crisis, and who bring us daily the stories of people making a difference.

• Thanks to the advertising staff, working harder than ever to help local businesses get their stories out at this time of enormous financial difficulty for so many.

• Thanks to the crews in production, whose jobs require them to leave their families and come to the plant to print not just our paper, but dozens of other daily, weekly and monthly publications serving the whole region.

• Thanks to the circulation department, from the ones who field your phone calls to the ones working every night to make sure your paper arrives at your home every morning.

And thanks to you, members, for your support.

We can’t do it without you.

We would like to THANK all of our first responders and healthcare workers for being on the front lines during this pandemic. We also want to recognize all the Foodservice workers including our drivers and our customers. We would like everyone to remember that our independent neighborhood restaurants bring us flavor not only with food but in spirit. Please remember our foodservice family with your prayer and patronage.

To our Healthcare workers, First Responders, Law Enforcement, and Manpower Associates who are supporting essential businesses…we say
