Historical November–December 2005 article. Dates, prices, services and contacts describe the source period; current availability has not been established.
Inside this issue you’ll find a fundraising envelope for our own special cause, THE TIMES OF SKINKER-DEBALIVIERE.
This allvolunteer newspaper has been published continuously for over 35 years — it’s the “oldest neighborhood newspaper in St. Louis.” Did you know that all our writing and all our distribution of nearly 3,000 newspapers is done by volunteers? Our shoestring budget is managed well by Business Manager Lois Schoemehl, but advertising doesn’t quite cover our expenses for layout and printing.
If you agree that communication among neighborhood residents is crucial to having a successful place to live and raise our families, please put a little something in the envelope for your own neighborhood newspaper this holiday season. And, if you’d like to volunteer to help, note that, too. We’ll be happy to have your writing, your photos, help with delivery or decision-making. Happy Holidays!
