Los Alamos Daily Post Assembles Citizen Advisory Board

LADP News:

Nearing its three-year anniversary and having experienced substantial growth, the Los Alamos Daily Post has assembled a Citizen Advisory Board (CAB) as a resource to tap into for information and feedback.

The Los Alamos Daily Post began its operations at a residence in White Rock, moved within a few weeks into shared space at The Hive on N.M. 4 and several months later into a small office in the Small Business Development Center in Los Alamos. With its continued growth in readership and revenue, in June the paper moved its headquarters to a large space at 1247 Central Ave, in downtown Los Alamos.

Since the paper launched Feb. 7, 2012, the mission has been to report on the activities of local neighborhoods, businesses, schools, faith based organizations, the County and Laboratory. The goal in assembling this CAB is to ensure that the newspaper is providing balanced coverage of all these facets of the community. Having access to high-quality expertise such as the members of the newspaper’s newly formed CAB will enhance its ongoing success.

The Los Alamos Daily Post is pleased to announce its CAB members:
