We are thankful for our readers who sometimes read the paper so carefully they call or email us to point out misplaced commas and misspelled words. We love that people take the time to do that. Thank you!

We are thankful that our local school principals take the time to send us newsletters, photos, captions and news tips. That helps us keep the public aware of the good things going on at the schools.

Thank you to all in the community who send us pictures, news tips, complaints, story ideas, other ideas and comments. Your contribution helps make this a true community newspaper.

We are thankful to our subscribers who so love their paper that they call us if it is late getting into the mailboxes. Thanks for letting us know and we're glad you miss the paper if it's late. Thanks too to web readers who call and email when they can't see each week's issue online fast enough!

We appreciate the business of our advertisers who send and bring us their classified ads, their display ads, and their business listings each week. We could not put out the paper without you. Thank you!

Thank you too to the advertisers who partnered with us and The Valley Interfaith Council and Shaw's to create this year's Thanksgiving baskets for needy families.

We appreciate the support of the local towns that designate us as their paper of record. We take the job of reporting the events and recording the happenings and issues of The Valley seriously and are grateful when that is recognized. Thank you.

To all who take the time to write letters to the editor and opinion pieces -- thank you for caring enough about local, regional, national and international issues to take the time to write and share your thoughts with our readers. We love to get mail and thank all who write.

Happy Thanksgiving.
