News Ambassador Reports 

River Reporter News Ambassadors River Reporter News Ambassadors are volunteers who attend local government meetings and provide us with agendas, recordings, minutes, and commentary so that we can deliver them to you.  They connect the newspaper and the public with valuable information while enjoying the rewards of civic engagement. News Ambassadors commit time to this project because they know that showing up in person makes a difference, and that building strong relationships between public institutions and the people they serve strengthens communities.  When you click on a town or township, you will be directed to a file folder system where you can access the meeting recording, transcript, and highlights of the meeting. 

This page is under development, and your feedback would be greatly appreciated.
