Dear valued readers:
Effective Friday, July 17, 2020, the Maryland Independent, The Enterprise and The Calvert Recorder will join together to begin publishing as the
Southern Maryland News, celebrating “Our Community, Your Story” each and every Friday.
Additionally, in lieu of the Wednesday print edition, subscribers will receive a daily (Monday—Thursday) subscriber only exclusive e-newsletter called the
Coffee Edition, debuting on Wednesday, July 15, while continuing to enjoy 24/7 access to the newly designed
somdnews.com featuring breaking news, lively features and commentary, entertainment, information and advertising.
This new and exciting product line-up consisting of the
Southern Maryland News print edition, the exclusive e-newsletter
Coffee Edition and the
somdnews.com newly designed website is rising out of COVID-19 as a dynamic integrated media consortium. These products are focused on delivering timely and relevant news, information of interest and advertising serving Charles County, St. Mary’s County, and Calvert County communities.
Our team members have been assigned to report on the communities they live, work and play in so we can carry on the pride and tradition of serving your community as the founders of the Maryland Independent, The Enterprise and The Calvert Recorder intended. Although we pledge to work diligently to make our online and print products invaluable to you, we are also requesting your continued support to do that. Please continue to send us your news, opinions, and photos, provide us with feedback, and hold us accountable.
