One of our copy editors and writers, Leslie Poster, is leaving to take a job at our sister publication, The Register Citizen, on Wednesday.

We have hired New Hampshire native Randall Booth to replace her. We were also recently joined by Elisabeth "Liz" Strillacci, another copy editor, and new Middletown reporter Hillary Federico started about a month ago.

Copy editor Sean Connor has been promoted to Assistant Sports Editor, and we also have a new advertising director, Andy Bucci.

If you visit our Facebook page, you can meet our staff. We are in the process of posting photos and videos of all staff members and their contact information - stop by to say hello!
