It is with great excitement that we reflect on 18 years of publishing the Bremerton Patriot. This great community deserves a local newspaper. Each year our staff works hard to give you the best journalism and advertising that is local and relevant to Bremerton area.
Many people subscribe to the Bremerton Patriot; others receive it free. We appreciate the support we get from our subscribers, and are putting additional emphasis on voluntarily paid subscriptions — that is, asking you to pay for your subscription.
We have every intention of continuing to be the city’s primary source of all-encompassing news with every page devoted just to Bremerton. Your subscription will help our efforts to do that. (For those of you that have paid in the past, thank you. Your contribution has not gone unnoticed.)
Your yearly contribution of $25 can be made either by mail using the address below or online through our secure server at bremertonpatriot.com/subscribe (we take Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Discover and even PayPal) or via phone at 1-888-838-3000. By subscribing you will be given additional advantages such as guaranteed delivery. Should something ever go wrong with your delivery we will take care the issue. If your paper ever shows up as wet, or damage, or if it doesn’t show up at all, we will redeliver it for free. Just call us and we will send a driver out to your address with the newspaper.
Your local community news has never been more important — whether it’s to bring you news of the upcoming elections, city and school issues, or all of the summer activities and special events that the Bremerton Patriot has to offer. We pride ourselves in bringing you fair, accurate and accessible news in an effort to bind this community together.
In the last 18 years, both the city and the Bremerton Patriot have come a long way. In addition to our handy, easy-to-read print edition, the Patriot is continually looking for ways to connect you news in a timely and convenient way — on BremertonPatriot.com, Facebook, Twitter, mobile apps. There is no need to wait for election results, news of traffic snarls, or other breaking news that you need. You can get it online daily or in the print edition on Friday. Our job is to keep you informed when you need it most, in a way that works best for you at that moment.
We can’t do it alone. Consider paying for a subscription by sending a check, calling in your payment, or paying online.
While you’re doing that, our award-winning staff will be out there covering the city council, school boards, fire district, water district and more — so you don’t have to.
One more thing — please support the Patriot’s advertisers. Let them know you appreciate seeing their ads in the Patriot. And remember to always shop locally when you can. Keep those local dollars local.
