2020 Covers475 viewsWe wish all of our readers a prosperous and healthy 2021. An especially challenging 2020 was overmatched by the resiliency of our local businesses, and we learned a whole new level of appreciation for our advertisers who have endured, emerged, and pressed on, spreading their successes to The Wanderer and the Tri-Town community we serve! The cover of the New Year's Eve, online-only edition of The Wanderer features 49 of our 2020 covers.

Barbies468 viewsMany neighbors and friends have been asking about the Barbies. Due to virus concerns, we made a conscious decision not to create the display this year since it draws so many visitors of all ages to congregate near our gate. Instead, the Barbies are observing social-distancing guidelines with masks on, as this photo taken on July 4 illustrates. We hope that the full crew will be out next year.
