The Millerton News is back online

The Lakeville Journal Co. is extremely pleased to announce that our website, which has content from The Lakeville Journal, The Millerton News, Compass arts and entertainment, TriCorner Real Estate and all annual special sections, is back up and running.

A software crisis had brought our site down in mid-December of 2019; Lakeville Journal Production Coordinator and Hero James Clark has worked diligently since then, along with John Sokolich at Surf New Media, to completely rebuild the website, which is now back up at www.tricornernews.com.

The website will start gathering archives once again, as the previous version’s content was lost. Keep track of all the news of the Tri-state area at our regional website.

Thank you for your patience and continued support!
