Would you believe? It is time again, and that time is going just too quickly. In spite of COVID-19 impacting and canceling events and activities that we have not been able to report to you, somehow through the summer, the CLARION has continued to have 24 pages in each issue with good reads and information for you.

But now I am starting to put the October issue together, and the closing date is a week from Tuesday – 22 September. Closing dates are selected so we can prepare the files for the printer, the printer has time for production, and then I deliver to the post offices so you have your CLARION by the first of the month. And, this one week notice is a reminder for you to send along by email your submissions – a news happening, past happening, or something you would like to share and have us consider for publication. And, new advertisers are always welcome. Many of my advertisers have been with me for years – their ads work, and they are supporting the CLARION as a community project.

So, here is your deadline warning, and if you have any questions, do email me – rayboas@comcast.net  Thank you, yours, RAY BOAS, Publisher
