Swannanoa Community Newsletter

Swannanoa Community Newsletter

Every other month (February, April, June, August, October, and December), FANS publishes an informative Swannanoa Community Newsletter that currently reaches over 1,400 subscribers. The free newsletter is sent via email to those who have requested to be put on the list, and is also shared on the FANS Facebook page, Nextdoor, and other social media sites.

In 2015, FANS launched a free, print edition of the e-newsletter. Currently, 500 copies of the print newsletter are distributed through the Swannanoa Library, Welcome Table and Swannanoa businesses, allowing us to reach residents who may not have regular access to a computer. The print newsletter is made possible through a generous donation of printing services from Davidson Homes (http://davidsonhomes.org/), a Swannanoa-based business that provides alternative family living and other services to individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities. FANS is very grateful to Davidson Homes for their support of this community project.

The Swannanoa Community Newsletter is full of timely news and articles of interest to Valley residents, including:

  • Upcoming community events and meetings
  • Programs at the Swannanoa Library, Swannanoa Valley Museum, etc.
  • County projects and issues affecting Swannanoa
  • Things to do in the Swannanoa Valley
  • Swannanoa history
  • …and much more
