History

The paper was first published in 1967. [2] It originated out of conversations among the members of Shelburne’s League of Women Voters about the need to distribute information about who was running for office. A group of women led by Roz Graham took what was originally a newsletter and turned it into a paper. [4]

In 2017, Holly Johnson sold the Shelburne News to Bob Miller and Norb Garrett, owners of the Stowe Reporter , Waterbury Record, News & Citizen, and the Citizen. [5] In January 2019, the owners renamed the company to Vermont Community Newspaper Group. [6]
