Welcome to our trial run of The Owen Sound Current! As we prepare for liftoff on November 1st, we’re experimenting with our setup and working out the kinks. We plan to bring you a roundup of what’s happening, local news, information you need to know, and things to do in and around Owen Sound three times weekly.

Full subscribers – those with a monthly or annual paid subscription – get access to all content and can participate in discussions via comments on each article.

Free subscribers can access select news headlines and briefs, plus previews as they’re available.

This trial edition is an example of what you can expect from The Owen Sound Current – but it’s just the beginning. We want to hear from YOU.

We’ll share polls in these daily briefs to take your temperature on various issues, and invite you to reach out to owensoundcurrenteditor@gmail.com with your questions, columnist recommendations, news tips, and more.

In this edition, full subscribers will find important local information beyond the headlines, including:
