News : It's the last time I'll ask this year...

This week will be a little different for news coverage due to the trial. Because I plan to be there most of the day, every day, I'll be working during breaks and at night, so I expect the outbound email might be a little light this week while I concentrate on that. So ya'll behave out there!

I will put one more request out to all of you to support Vinton Today as we finish up celebrating this 13th Year. Pretty cool, and I can't believe that it's been that long already!

We're closing in on another quarter of a million visits to the site, which will bring it to 31,250,000 visits. I can't even comprehend how large that number is!

Thank you for all of your continued support. Thank you for your news tips! Thank you for the things that all of you do in our community that give me something to write about (that are good) and just for being the awesome people that you are!

So for the last time, I'll put this out there. The best way that you can support this effort is to advertise. If you are a business, trust me, you CAN afford to advertise! And shoppers, you know who you are, support the businesses that are on the site.

If you aren't a business person, if you'd like, you could support the effort with a donation each month straight from your bank. Or if you want to send in an annual donation, feel free to do that as well. If you're a tech person, click HERE to find the Venmo link, you might need the following number 4125 to complete a transaction.

Once again, my heartfelt thank you to each of you who support this website financially, or with your encouragement and with your news. This little town of Vinton really is the best!

Thank you for everything!
