Here We Grow Again — Welcome Suffield! SUFFIELD- Continuing its mission to become “the people’s paper” for the region, The North Central News is proud to find its way into the homes of Suffield/West Suffield residents this month. “Since our inception in 2002, the North Central News has brought back the type of positive, homespun community news and features that the other publications have abandoned,” explained Editor & Publisher Gary Carra. “We at the North Central News believe there are a lot of great stories in Suffield that aren’t being told, and we’re going to do something about it.” In addition to Suffield residents this month, the North Central News goes to all homes and P.O. boxes in East Windsor, Ellington, Enfield, Somers and Stafford and is also available for free pickup at more than 100 high-traffic locations (i.e. town halls, supermarkets, libraries, etc.). This month’s mailing into Suffield was made possible by the following local sponsors: • Highland Park Market (p. 31) • New Innovations (p. 31) • Suffield Economic Development (p. 30) • Suffield Massage Therapy (p. 31) • Tavern at Suffield Country Club/La Notte (p. 33) For more information on the North Central News - including sponsorship of the October issue - visit www.thenorthcentralnews.com, call 860-698-0020 or email: northcentralnews@aol.com. The deadline for advertising and editorial submissions for the next issue is Wednesday, Sept. 25. - NCN Staff
