Messenger Print Edition on Break—Next Issue on Aug. 9

The Messenger is taking its two-week summer break. Our office will reopen Monday, Aug. 5, and we’ll be back in print on Friday, Aug. 9.

Janet Graham joins me in thanking our dedicated supporters: the loyal advertisers who know the value of an ad in the Messenger; the Sewanee Community Chest for past support and the University of the South, whose donations to this publication encourage conversation and cooperation in our community.

I am grateful to all our columnists and contributors—Phoebe and Scott Bates, Jean and Harry Yeatman, Annie Armour, John Bordley, Virginia Craighill,
Patrick Dean, Buck Gorrell, John Shackelford, Margaret Stephens, Peter Trenchi, Pat Wiser and
Francis Walter—who make us laugh, learn and see the world in new ways. 

I also want to acknowledge the important contributions of staff members April Minkler, Ray Minkler and Sandra Gabrielle; staff writers Leslie Lytle, K.G. Beavers and Kevin Cummings; and interns (at the paper and at TheMountainNow.com) Sarah Beavers, Sarah Butler and Marisa Wilson.

Finally I want to thank you, our readers, who faithfully read the Messenger each week and give us honest, thoughtful feedback. 


Our community is stronger because of your commitment to this Mountain. –LW­
