About The Whisper

There’s alot that goes on in this town of about 16,000 people, but not alot of us know even what our neighbors are up to. There are dozens of youth activities, active church organizations, businesses with unique offerings, and interesting people that play a role in our lives all around us. The government of the town is filled with volunteers that make decisions on your taxes and your children’s education. This blog serves as a news outlet and glimpse into what’s going on around you as well as opinion page that may shape the decisions you have to make as a resident.

All residents are welcome to contribute news, information and even whole articles. Whether it youth sports scores, a business opening or strictly opinion, feel free to contact us. We’ll do our best to include it. Writers wanted.
