With a jolt of grassroots energy and a shockingly strong dose of community spirit, The Brownsville Times is alive once more! Thanks to the lifeblood of the Central Linn community — our readers, writers, advertisers, and donors — we’ve been resuscitated with heart and humor. Like in the illustration above, it was the “Brownsville Community” who wielded the paddles and yelled “Clear!” — and now here we are, grinning on the gurney, full of stories and stronger than ever. Thank you for believing in our revival — we promise to keep the pulse of our towns beating proudly.
