Great news! Community Connection-Port Arthur will publish Feb. 16 and will be mailed to more than 24,000 households in Port Arthur, including the communities of Port Acres and Sabine Pass.
It wasn't too long ago that our friend Dwight Wagner came into the newsroom carrying a copy of Community Connection-Mid-County. He was polite but very firm, in that school principal sort of way, when he asked me why there wasn't a Port Arthur version of the popular monthly hyperlocal newspaper. I told him to be patient, it was coming. We are inventing new products to connect and inform our communities and we had to test the waters first and see if it was safe to swim.
Community Connection-Mid-County has been a tremendous success, both in terms of advertising and readership. I've received numerous calls from people asking about the publication. People are hungry for news and information about their community and this free newspaper packed with news that directly affects them comes right to their mailbox.
So, Port Arthur people, get ready. Community Connection is coming your way soon.
