On July 16, 2026, The Community Press celebrates 118 years of uninterrupted publishing since its very first edition was released on July 16, 1908.
As we move closer to the milestone of 120 years in publishing, let’s reflect on the very first edition of The Sedgewick Sentinel (as the ‘Press was originally known). For FREE on Patreon, check out the July 16, 1908 edition here. Enjoy both the 2008 reproduction, and the scanned copy of original microfilm.
It’s truly remarkable how long ago that very first edition came out. The world was entirely different. Yet we proudly carry on that legacy to this day.
