Announcing a new Peninsula Clarion print schedule

Our last Wednesday edition will be delivered June 26.

Beginning in July, the Peninsula Clarion will print once weekly, with papers delivered Fridays via mail. Our dedicated team of journalists remains committed to producing local news and will continue posting our award-winning reporting daily on our website — www.peninsulaclarion.com.

Our last Wednesday edition will be delivered June 26. We will publish our last Saturday paper July 6 and deliver readers a weekly paper every Friday following.

Sound Publishing and our parent company Carpenter Media have made this decision after careful thought and in recognition of a local and national media landscape that has seen changes in how both advertising and news content are consumed.

As the central peninsula’s paper of record, the Clarion remains stalwart in its mission to inform and engage local readers in hopes we can help build a strong, thriving community.
