Local journalism survives here, thanks to you
This time last year, The Lakeville Journal Company had come through a critical time in its history.

There are times when we, as human beings, question what we’re seeing with our very own eyes. We perhaps doubt that what we’re witnessing is actually what we are witnessing. Could it be an illusion, a trick, a mirage? Wednesday, Jan.
We’ve finally made it. After 12 exhausting, seemingly endless and torturous months, we’ve managed to put 2020 — a year of death and tragedy — the year of the global coronavirus pandemic — behind us.
There’s been a lot of chatter on social media in the Tri-state region, and especially in Millerton, about face masks in the past couple of weeks. In fact, more than 130 comments were posted on one Facebook page, plus nearly 100 emojis — and that’s just on a single page.

Some of our readers may have noticed that the past couple of weeks — and this week — we’ve included in our print editions a letter from the owners of The Lakeville Journal Company.
