About our holiday schedule

The holidays and accompanying scheduling conflicts seem to throw off normal schedules for every organization in town. The same goes for the newspaper, especially with Christmas falling on our normal Tuesday deadline day.

So here’s what’s happening with our publication schedule. You’re holding the Nov. 19 issue. On Friday of this week, you can pick up the Nov. 26 issue. That’s when we’ll get it in the mail.

That issue will include the community’s choice for The Star volunteer of the year, Christmas cards by third-graders and more.

We’ll be back on our normal printing schedule for the Jan. 2, 2013 issue, although we’ll still need an early deadline for community news and ads no later than Thursday, Dec. 27.

We love the holiday season, but like everybody else, we’ll still be glad to get back to normal.
