The Weekly Observer to launch new community comment piece

The Weekly Observer has question for its readers: what’s do you think? While letters to the editor are always welcomed and encouraged, a new weekly feature will give readers an additional opportunity to let their voices be heard. Each week we will ask for your feedback on a specific news event covered in The Weekly Observer. Excerpts from the best comments will be printed in the following week’s paper and another story will be brought up for discussion. Through this new program we hope to get a better idea of what the community thinks about news in the area.

This week topic: The city pool debate in Johnsonville. Comments can be emailed to with “Community Comment” in the subject line. You can also mail your thoughts in to:

We look forward to reading your comments!
