Fall and Holiday Events

There is no time of the year that brings people together more than fall and the holidays all the way through New Years. Special fall festivals and events are held in every state and province, arts and crafts shows are at their best while shops hold special open houses complete with refreshments, new products and a festive flair. End of year and New Years sales kick in once the festivities are over giving shoppers added incentive to shop again.

It is a great time of the year to do your "fall" house cleaning and add some new decor to your dwelling place. The Country Register can tell you just what shops will have the latest and greatest, and these same shops will be filled with ideas for you. At the mention of "fall" house cleaning you don't have to hang the rugs out on the line and beat them like was done back in the "good old days" nor do you have to wash down the walls. Today we are more apt to put in hardwood or laminate floors that are easy to care for and the walls? It is much more fun to apply some colorful paint to update your decor to go with your new treasures or old treasures that can be found in the antique shops. Blending the new and old is a great option also.

Fall is a good time to start all your holiday projects. There is still time to complete handmade projects that you can give to others or use to deck up your own home.

Use your Country Register as your shopping guide and inspiration to be creative.

Year 2011 Marks The Country Register's 24th Anniversary

It is the beginning of the 24th Anniversary for The Country Register. I remember the very first issue, born in Arizona. It was very small, a little shy on advertisers, very shy on articles. Color was not widely used and in our case, not used at all. It was back in the days when you cut and pasted each item in the paper on a page to send to the printer. But that was the way of publishing in 1988. Since then many, many changes have changed the way of doing everything in the business. Since 1988 Michigan (first after Arizona) and then all the many other states and provinces, one by one, were added to our list of publishers. It is something worth celebrating.

The Country Register Has Several New Publishers

The Country Register, the newspaper that is all across the country, occasionally has new publishers come aboard. This has taken place several times in the past few months. Dee Sleep in South Dakota has taken on the publication that covers a very large area covering the Dakotas, Montana, Wyoming and N. Idaho. She is looking forward to her new venture and has printer's ink in her veins. At one time this was broken into two publications and her goal is to make that happen again.

In Canada we bid Celia Hayton, long time publisher, goodby when her assistant Ruth Burke became the new publisher of the Alberta edition.

Within this past year Christi Moore became publisher of the Kentucky-Tennessee Country Register. Christi is a daughter of Barb Moore who does the Ohio edition.

Lenda Williams is loving her venture as publisher of Country Registers and is now doing Oklahoma, Texas, Arkansas, Missouri, and Illinois.

There is still opportunity in a very few areas. Check our publishers list either online or in one of our many publications across the country and see if you see an opportunity that fits your skills.
