<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> </span></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">The April/May 2013 issue of the <i>Heath Herald</i> announced that the current long-time volunteers would be stepping down and they were looking for a new group with "energetic and enthusiastic minds and voices" to continue producing the newspaper.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">A new group has formed and will produce the next issue of the <i>Heath Herald</i> without interruption. The August/September issue will honor the longtime tradition of featuring the annual Heath Fair and its events. It will also include longstanding contributors as well as incorporating new ideas. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Though changes are inevitable, the mission of the original staff of the <i>Heath Herald </i>rose out of a desire to foster a sense of community and fellowship will remain. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Two changes that have already occurred are the addition of an online subscription form, and having an option of how you receive your issue of the <i>Herald</i>: as a PDF file by email or as a printed copy by mail. </span><br />
