The Camptonville Community Courier
The inspiration for the Courier came out of a 1996 Town Hall Meeting where the first 'communications team' met.
Present at the pioneering Courier meeting were Roger Rapp, Cathy LeBlanc, Bob Carpenter, and Dwayne Dobbins. The first issue came out in April of 1997. This was its focus, as described in the first issue:
"The Camptonville Community Courier is a basic forum to spread information about local happenings.
The emphasis, at least for now, will be on updates from local groups, announcements of upcoming events, and swap info. From time to time, we may run feature articles of local concern.
We're open to all ideas, so get in touch.
We're trying to keep it a simple, brown-paper-wrapper
kind of publication that will be representative of all walks of life here
in the greater Camptonville area."
