General News: Breaking News --- We're Back!

July 17, 2012

Dear Reader,

News from Cornwall and Cornwall-on-Hudson is back! This popular site for local news and events has a new owner/publisher, Wendy Bogart, who will begin editing the website this week.

Wendy knows the Cornwall community well. She is a graduate of Cornwall Central High School and lives in the village with her husband and two young children. If you’d like to get in touch with Wendy, please email her at [email protected].

I am pleased that once again residents and visitors to the Cornwall area will have a place to find out what’s going on and I hope you will support this newly relaunched site.

Regards,
Nancy Peckenham

Dear Reader,

On April 26th, 2012, I read the letter from Nancy stating she was moving on from her role as editor of the website. I was so disappointed to read the news but something clicked and I immediately called her to inquire about taking on the web site.

News from Cornwall and Cornwall-on-Hudson
has been such a great resource for me I can't imagine not having this information at my disposal. I have grown very fond of receiving the newsletters, the updates about the events, stories and photos from around town, but most of all, seeing how the community connects on an online forum. Whether the comments are positive or negative it shows how much the local and former residents care by contributing their thoughts and passion about the various hot topics of the moment.

I would like to continue to serve the community in the same capacity as Nancy, so I will need the support of the advertisers and readers who have kept this site the resource that it is. Nancy is undoubtedly passionate about this forum she has created and has spent much of her free time these last few months reviewing the site with me. This news site is here to serve you, to keep you and your neighbors informed and to keep those who have moved away connected.

I grew up in the town of Cornwall, and moving to the village as an adult I felt a little disconnected as to what was going on. This site helped educate me on the politics, businesses and the people as I hope it has and will continue to do the same for you. That being said, I welcome contributions from the readers, from suggestions on what you'd like to see on the site to event information and photos from around town. If you're involved in a local community event that needs to be publicized, please send it my way so I can share it with your neighbors.

Regards,
Wendy Bogart

We are very happy that your back on line. My wife and I go south for the winter and this is one of the ways we keep up on the news from Cornwall. Plus when we're at home too.

I've been missing this site terribly! Thanks Nancy and Welcome Wendy!

Be happy to come back if you do away with Nancy's requirement that comments be limited to 200 words (or whatever it was). If people don't want to read long comments, they're absolutely welcome to skip them, but some people enjoy writing comments that require thought and discussion, and a few of us enjoy reading them at length. I could go on,of course...

So glad you are again up and running! All the best of luck to you Wendy, you've taken on a big task. Now, if we only could get Brother's BBQ back, life would be complete!


posted by Bill Clark on 07/18/12 at 8:29 AM

Good luck and may you have the energy and ambition that Nancy had!


posted by David Redden on 07/18/12 at 5:22 PM

Welcome Wendy! This source of news and photographs has become a favorite of many fellow residents! Thank you for bravely undertaking such a mighty task! May Nancy's indefatigable spirit be with you!
