As the new editor for The Seaside Times, I invite everyone to pick up a copy and let me know what they think.

I'm in need of contributing writers, photos, essays, poems, song lyrics, etc. Basically anything that falls out of your head that you would want published.

We'll be taking the paper through a re-design, so hopefully during the next three issues you will continue to see changes.

It is distributed throughout Seaside, and up and down CR30A.

Thank you!
Susan Vallee

great suggestions. It would be great to see Seaside Times be more community oriented, expanding beyond its borders and featuring local folks, history, tales, schools, artists, etc. Seaside is very much part of the whole community and it would be great to see that reflected in the Times. I've often thought the Times looked like a giant ad for itself, but I guess it is.

congrats Susan!!! and good luck!

I definitely agree that the Seaside Press could reflect more of SoWal and shape more of SoWal. I think that SoWal is growing fast right now so everyone, including at Seaside, on 30A is affected by whatever happens on 30A. So, the more we think about shaping how the whole community is perceived and how we want people to think of themselves (relaxed, environmentally focused, safe drivers, considerate, sporty, healthy, artsy, grateful, family-oriented, child-friendly, romantic, friendship-focused, good schools, inviting diversity, tourist friendly, snowbird friendly, spa-ish, etc.), the more likely SoWal will reflect that. The Seaside Press could be an important influence on SoWal in general (as I'm sure it has been).

By the by - 30AGay - would you be interested in writing? Maybe submit some "clean" satire???

Dear Miss Sunny,

I think I will stick to the sullied satire myself. Thank you for you kind offer; if you ever feel the need to shake things up, you know ?put a clenched cheek crease in those khaki covered Seaside rears, you just let me know.:roll:
