Lashbrook speaks
animatedly about the need for
increased promotion of the
industry on all levels in-
cluding the grassroots level
where he, as president, in-
tends to increase the amount
of visitation across the
country. "I started as a
printer's devil • under my
father who published the
Rodney paper and became a
full time employee in 1991, so
I know how badly we need to
yhout out our story of strength
in readership. I intend to see
that we shout it out.
"Community newspapers
are an old medium that has a
totally new and important
impact as a result of offset
printing and as a result of.the
sociological movement to the
community for personal
identity needs. That is- our
message as an industry.
"My subscribers know that
the only place they can find
feature coverage and
editorial leadership for the
town of Rodney and West
Lorne is in the community
papers I produce for -them.
This is our strength and it
always will be," he said.
Lashbrook speaks for-
cefully and articulately about
the benefits of living in a
small town. He has served in
municipal posts from time to
time and as a result of his
studies at the University of
"Western Ontario (Classof
49). he follows the politics of
south western Ontario with
relish.
