Milky Way to say goodbye
After several decades operating, Gordonton’s newsletter The Milky Way is to close down.

“This we have really appreciated and our sincere thanks to all those who have contributed in any way.”

Number 8 Network joined the volunteers back in September 2011 in the old Gordonton school to help sort, staple and stack about 500 issues. Here are some pics of the process –
