14 manufactured-home communities, 2 single-family neighborhoods and 1 condominium association, from 200 homes to 1,300. Chances are we already publish next door.

Board updates, calendars, club news, photos — whatever residents should know. A volunteer editor sends it through our simple editor portal by the monthly deadline. No design skills needed.
Professional layout, proofed with your editor before a page runs, then printed on our own presses on Bahama Street — not sent out to a broker.
Every issue goes to every home in the community. Local advertisers fund it, which is why the association never sees an invoice.
Manatee County is next door to our Venice office and presses — Bradenton, Palmetto, Ellenton, Parrish and Lakewood Ranch are all a short drive up I-75. Homeowner associations and manufactured-home communities alike get the same free, printed, delivered newsletter.

Yes. Advertising covers design, printing and delivery. There is no invoice to your association — that has been the model since 2010, across 120 communities today. Optional upgrades exist, but the standard newsletter costs the community nothing.
You do. Your editor approves a proof of every issue before it prints. We place the ads; the articles, calendar and announcements are yours.
