Just a little note to let you know we are working hard to make your online experience the best it can be. With that being said, we are also very ramped up to get you several printed Newsletters in 2022, hopefully one in color. The Board is working with me to try and make sure this happens, but as with all things lately, costs for printing (and especially postage) have gone way up.
We are very blessed to have the Authors that are putting out such fine work. I can’t begin to tell you how much of a pleasure it is dealing with them, even through our myriad of edits. No one get’s frustrated and it’s always a lot of fun to see a rough draft come to fruition.
For 2022 we already have almost (3) complete Newsletters waiting to go. The last one for the year still needs proofing but we have a ton of time to get it ready. The first two are going to be keepers for your library, as I hope previous copies are as well.
The upcoming Newsletter has two great articles by John Taibi and Ray Kelly. John’s article, “A Patented Face AND Expansion Culvert – Welcome Home! focuses on the Munnsville Plow Company and Ray Kelly’s “The O&W – Then and Now” will focus on Campbell Hall as we head towards the O&W’s headquarters in Middletown.
The 2nd Newsletter article for 2022 will be entitled “PEEKING IN THE STATION WINDOW – ORISKANY FALLS By Kenneth L. Hojnacki. We are just finishing up the edits on this and it will be ready for sometime in the Spring/early Summer if my calculations are correct
Special Thanks go out to all the Authors and especially our in-house proofreader, Mark kennaugh who has tirelessly worked with me and the Authors to get every comma (he loves his commas!) and punctuation correct. Without him I would be lost.
So a Very Happy New Year to all! Let’s hope 2022 will be a better and brighter year. Please stay safe out there.
P.S. One last note…I have provided e-mails to all the on-line Authors. Please feel free to contact them with your questions and comments, they would love to hear from you! Also, If for any reason you are a new member and never received you password or need a new one please drop me a line at: editors!ontarioexpress.org.
Sincerely, your Co-Editor,
