☀️ Welcome to the Sherwood Sun weekly newsletter!
Thanks for signing up for Sherwood Sun’s newsletter. We're so happy to have you here!
Issue 1 | Thursday, October 2, 2025
Hi there, neighbor!
I’m Jules Rogers, the Sherwood Sun's founding editor.
I started The Sun to fill the need for a local, independent, non-partisan media news outlet relevant to our local area. We lost some of that in the past few years, and I hope to bring it back.
If you are wondering about the business opening or closing down the street, the event going on downtown, the latest from the city council and the school board, and what else is happening around Sherwood, this newsletter is for you.
You can also go to sherwoodsun.org any time for up-to-date news and information, and follow us on Instagram and Facebook for more updates.
Read on to see our latest news!
Thanks for reading,
Jules Rogers
Owner, editor, neighbor
P.S. The Sherwood Sun is free thanks to our community partners!
