Valley News Blogs Get a Makeover: Easier Navigation with New Categories

Heather McGhee • January 16, 2025

Valley News has launched a new Blog webpage with eight categories to simplify finding articles on topics that matter to the community.

Finding the blogs published as part of the Valley News is now easier than ever, thanks to a new Blog webpage on the Association website. Each blog is categorized into one of eight topics, enabling residents to quickly search for subjects of interest.


This improvement came from a suggestion by Jeff Wells during a Valley News Editorial Advisory Committee meeting last August. The idea sparked a productive discussion among members, culminating in the launch of the revamped webpage.
