A word to our readers and advertisers
To our community: During the COVID-19 outbreak and the ensuing extended period of self-isolation, please continue to support our local businesses in whatever way possible. A list of ideas and links may be found here. And please thank the workers at Peck’s, the Manor Pharmacy, the Post Office, the CRMC Clinic and other services around Sullivan County, for continuing to serve us all during this crisis.
To our advertisers: There would be no Manor Ink without you, and out of concern for the economic stress you are undoubtedly currently experiencing during the state of emergency, we are suspending all billing and renewal solicitations. We will continue to run all advertising with the wish and expectation that the community will support you through this crisis. And please visit our newly expanded and updated list of local businesses and the products and services they are offering during Gov. Cuomo’s “Pause” by clicking the link below.
