The Town Crier now has 14 business members: Baily Winery (Carol & Phil Baily); Everitt\u2019s Minerals & Gallery (Janet & Larry Everitt); The Family Business (tax preparation - Craig & Janice Coopersmith); Fern Creek Medical Center; Fern Valley Inn (Gary & Marcie Erb); Idyllwild Backhoe (Carol & David Jones, Denise & Justin Jones); Idyllwild Vacation Rentals (Chris Titus); Middle Ridge Winery Tasting Gallery (Chris & Melody Johnston); Mountain High Escrow; The Red Kettle (restaurant \u2013 Bruce Ross); Sandlin & Son Refrigeration (David Sandlin); Sub Rosa Apothecary (Julia Meadows & Marc Peterman); TetraDym Inc. (Bill Protzmann); and Whitman Physical Therapy (Bill Whitman).<\/p>\n
And six nonprofit and public agency members: Fern Valley Water District; Friends of San Jacinto Mountain County Parks; Hemet Public Library; Idyllwild Animal Rescue Friends; Idyllwild Master Chorale; and St. Hugh\u2019s Episcopal Church.<\/p>\n
But we still need business advertising, so our quest for more business advertisers continues. Please remember that: 1) Town Crier readers are established supporters of our Hill community, 2) your ad can dominate a TC page, and 3) people keep and read their TCs for a whole week. So your Town Crier business add is focused, highly visible and enduring.<\/p>\n
And, of course, we always ask our Town Crier Members to support Hill businesses that support our local newspaper with their advertising. That\u2019s a triple win for our community.<\/p>\n
Existing subscribers are converting to memberships at the rate of about 10 to 12 per week as old subscriptions expire, and we see no reason why it should not continue at that rate through to the one-year anniversary of the membership campaign on next Aug. 16 \u2014 about 34 weeks from now. That will bring TC memberships to around 700 supporting Members at all levels. This kind of membership support can enable the Town Crier to continue to serve our community just as long as its readers want it.<\/p>\n
We wish all our readers the very best of this holiday season, and remind you all that a Membership in the TC makes a fine holiday gift for someone who hasn\u2019t yet joined us.<\/p>\n
And please remember that the Town Crier\u2019s weekly News Meeting is open to the entire public. The next meeting after this Wednesday morning\u2019s Dec. 20 meeting is Thursday, Dec. 28, at 8:30 a.m. (We are closed Monday for Christmas.)<\/p>\n
