History

The Cañon City Daily Record was acquired in 1978 by Ed and Ruth Lehman, who had previously bought the Longmont Times-Call (1957) and the Loveland Reporter-Herald (1967). Lehman Communication was continued by the next generation of the Lehman family. The newspaper group was expanded with the Erie Review, Lafayette News, Louisville Times and Superior Observer that were combined into the Colorado Hometown Weekly.

Prairie Mountain Publishing acquired Lehman Communication in 2011. [1] [2] [3]

In June 2024, the newspaper announced it will switch from carrier to postal delivery for its print edition. [4]
