Welcome New Reporters to Brewster and New Fairfield HamletHub

HamletHub is thrilled to announce the addition of our new reporters and photographers.

Hamlethub is a network of “hyper-local” sites that provide locally sourced news about a community. Brewster HamletHub joined the HamletHub community in February 2015 and our team was assigned New Fairfield HamletHub in February 2018. We empower people to tell their own stories.  HamletHub has proven to be an effective vehicle for delivering local news.  It gives businesses a much-needed platform to market efficiently, connects residents to their town, and brings awareness and support to charities and town governments.

Please help us welcome the following community members to HamletHub!
