Anyone know much about the area, paper quality, etc.? Thanks.

 

I don't, but I do enjoy the minimalism of the ad.

 

I've covered a few games in this area. Within an hour of Fort Wayne. Other than that it's pretty much your run-of-the-mill pleasant small town in Indiana. I know nothing of the paper, but I'm applying anyway.
