Closing date for the December 2026 CLARION is a tad early due to our printer’s holiday schedule, as is usually the case. The closing date for the December issue is Friday, November 20 – 5 pm Walpole time – one week away. Your submissions welcomed earlier if possible. Submission guidelines, and contact email are on the CLARION website. — https://thewalpoleclarion.com

Your early submissions help as I start developing the layout well beforehand. If you have some “news” send it along. In addition, I like to have on-hand material of interest that is not time-sensitive to fill space to round out a pleasing issue. So, if you would “like to be in print” and have something to write and share (images as well), send along for possible inclusion space permitting. Please do remember, it is the advertisers in each issue that make this community publication possible, so please support and thank them.

If you have any questions, or interest in placing an advertisement, reaching over 1900 Walpole, North Walpole and Drewsville addresses, I welcome your inquiries, so please do get in touch with me. Advertising information and contact information is on the CLARION website.

Have a Happy and Safe Thanksgiving Day, and careful travels — Thank you, RAY BOAS, Publisher
