Celebrate 13 Years of Gossips!

On January 20, 2010, The Gossips of Rivertown published its very first post. Thirteen years, 12,436 posts, and more than 10 million pageviews later, Gossips is still going strong. It has become a valued source for local news and history and has earned the respect of many and the disdain of a few. The ability to search thirteen years' worth of posts makes Gossips a useful reservoir of information about Hudson's most recent past.

Today, as I do every year on Gossips' anniversary, I humbly acknowledge all the readers who have made Gossips a success and offer my sincere thanks to the Gossips supporters and advertisers whose monetary contributions help pay the bills and continue to make Gossips a worthwhile endeavor. Today, too, I invite readers to celebrate thirteen years of sharing news, history, and occasional gossip about the troubles and triumphs in our little river city by joining the folks who have already shown their support for The Gossips of Rivertown in 2023.

Your support--in any amount--will be gratefully acknowledged and will ensure the continuation of Gossips for yet another year.
