Letter to Readers_____________________ Delivery to Sutton not sustainable

Dear Sutton readers,

We regret to inform Sutton readers that we can no longer find it financially feasible to mail direct to Sutton residents. Mailing rates have skyrocketed over the last few years and for the first time in our 32 year history the cost of mailing our publication has surpassed the cost of printing it.

Over a decade ago we began direct mailing The new Uxbridge Times to all homes and businesses in the town of Sutton. At that time we believed an advertising base from Sutton businesses to support the costs would follow. However, the amount of support we needed to cover printing and mailing costs to the town has not been met for quite some time. Therefore, this will be the last issue of our publication that will be directly mailed. if you would like to purchase a subscription, the cost per year is $36.00. Payable to The new Uxbridge Times, P.O. Box 401, Uxbridge, MA 01569. it has been our pleasure to work with the town offices, community organizations, residents and businesses to publish your articles. We encourage you to continue submitting items that may be of interest to your surrounding communities.

Our advertisers are certainly feeling the pinch and we do not want to pass that cost on to them. Because of this we have had to make a difficult decision in order to continue to serve the other communities in our area.

We will be adding “drop” sites to pick up the paper in Sutton. Drop sites will include: Market 32, Tony's Pizza, UniBank, Sutton Library & Sutton Post Office. Also, always online at www. thenewuxbridgetimes.com.

Sincerely,

Kathleen Mussulli Publisher/ Owner THE nEW UxBriDgE TiMES
