In addition to five Membership levels, the Town Crier is supported by several loyal advertisers. Currently, eleven of them enjoy discounts for their ads under one-year contracts — helping the Town Crier plan ahead. So, our special thanks to: Art Alliance of Idyllwild (Donna Elliott); Fern Creek Medical Center (Dr. Kenneth Browning); Idyllwild Arts (Pamela Jordan); Idyllwild Dental Building (Dr. Bryan Dunn); Idyllwild Realty (Shane Stewart); Johnny Wilson, Realtor; Middle Ridge Winery Tasting Gallery (Chris & Melody Johnson); New Spirit Vacation Homes/Maids of Idyllwild (Monica Larrabee); Precision Tree Experts (John Huddleston); Robin Oates Real Estate (Robin Oates); and Tommy’s Kitchen (Thomas & Kristen Bachmann).

Fairway Market advertises with the TC in weekly inserts, the Red Kettle supplies gift cards to our Members, Village Market supports our weekly “So You Think You Know the Hill?” contest, and the TC has several more businesses that support it with non-contract ads.

We thank you all for supporting a real newspaper for our Hill community.
