News and Opinion from Sisters, Oregon
The staff here at The Nugget want to thank our readers and advertisers for working with us as we implement our new subscription program. The response has been gratifying, with so many people signing up to make sure they continue to get their weekly Nugget in their mailbox.
As this program becomes fully implemented, we want to make sure we are communicating clearly about the various ways to support local journalism.
Subscriptions
The Nugget Newspaper will continue to be a “free” publication, maintaining community connection. The Nugget is charging delivery cost for mailbox subscriptions — not as an additional revenue stream, but as a means to recoup ever-increasing costs. You can still pick up your Nugget around town for free. In addition to all the local businesses where you’ve always been able to pick up a free Nugget, the post offices in Sisters, Black Butte Ranch, and Camp Sherman will also have Nuggets on a rack or counter where you can grab a copy with your mail. And we’re working on expanding distribution points.
You can subscribe online by hitting “Subscribe” at the top of The Nugget website homepage at http://www.nuggetnews.com. Or you can call us at 541-549-9941, or visit the office at 442 E. Main Ave. We’re always glad to see you. (Note that we’ll be out of the office for Christmas break December 24-January 1).
Supporting Contributions
Supporting Contributions are separate from subscriptions — they are a direct contribution from readers to The Nugget and are designated to support our cadre of freelance reporters, columnists, and photographers — the folks who gather and report the news or provide insight and commentary through their columns. You can make a direct supporting contribution by clicking “Donate” at http://www.nuggetnews.com — or call or come in.
Support Local Business
Our advertisers — in print and online — are the financial engine that keeps The Nugget going. When you shop, dine, and hire services locally, you support those advertisers, and The Nugget — and the economic vitality of our community as a whole.
We appreciate all of our readers and advertisers and the community we serve. This, of all seasons, is one of gratitude — and we’re thankful for all of you.
Jim Cornelius, Editor in Chief — and the staff of The Nugget Newspaper
