Our readers write

Writing the news for Cramahe is almost always gratifying. Members of our community value the work we do to keep people informed and they tell us. Once in awhile we receive mail from readers who want to publicly share their appreciation.

Donna Rusaw has been a big booster of Cramahe Now right from the start. She supports us with her comments and by her long-term commitment to advertising. The financial support of Donna and others like her allows us to avoid asking our readers to pay to read our community news. It allows us to continue our efforts on your behalf.

Below is a letter Donna wrote to us this week.


Dear Bob & Lesley:

Congratulations on your three new advertisers for your Cramahe Now blog. There is no doubt that with the loss of the Colborne Chronicle the word was just not going to get out to our community as it had for over 100 years. You both took lemons and made lemonade. You realized that knowledge is power and that we needed a source to shout and brag about our community. Everything from Up & Coming, sporting events, Cramahe Council news, death notices, thank you's, come and join us, and all the other feel good stuff we were used to having brought into our homes every Thursday. Now you have given us this opportunity 6 - 7 days a week.

As one of your first Linked Ad advertisers I am nothing but extremely pleased with my ad and all the time and effort that you both have put into creating it. It has been hard for many to realize that you are no longer a regularly paid reporter but the unpaid creator and operator of a blog. I think that many have realized this fact and appreciate that we still can receive this info though your blog. Congratulations again and I wish you many more Cramahe Township blogging stories and future advertisers.
