WE SURVIVE & THRIVE THANKS TO VOLUNTEERS

As editor and publisher of this community blog, I want to thank our volunteers for digging up stories and pictures to keep our readers informed and entertained. Special kudos to Alan Wald, Dan Stegink, the ever-anonymous Big Banker & Jay Bird (yes, they are real), and others who work behind the scenes. Also, thanks to the dozens of Coastsiders who have financially supported us since our 2007 launch. Stay safe, stay healthy, wash your hands, keep your social distance, and mask up!
