In an effort to expand the breadth and depth of our opinion pages, we want to join forces with an engaged group of people who know and feel strongly about what’s going on in and around our state – you, our readers. Think of it as a valuable extension of the editorial board – the broader, the better.

Our editors will call on panel members for perspectives on relevant news and local developments; issue member-only invitations to editorial board meetings and related events; host roundtable discussions on burning questions and subjects of interest; and solicit feedback on the state of our section more generally.

Membership is open to opinionated Press Herald subscribers and non-subscribers alike. Using the form below, tell us a bit about who you are, where you’re at and what you care about. And we’ll take it from there.
