Morris Publishing Group launches weekly Vilonia Eagle

Posted

Morris Publishing Group, LLC has launched a new weekly publication, the Vilonia Eagle in Vilonia, Ark. 

The publication, along with the website viloniaeagle.net, is a product of the Log Cabin Democrat and Log Cabin Media (Conway, Ark.).  Zach Ahrens, president of Log Cabin Media and publisher of both the Log Cabin Democrat and the Vilonia Eagle, pointed out that the Eagle will attempt to share the character of the area it covers.

"The Eagle celebrates the indomitable spirit of Vilonia," Ahrens said.  "As one who has lived in several locations throughout the country, I can tell you most assuredly what exists in Vilonia is the exception and not the rule.  I realized the only thing missing in this great town is a newspaper that belongs solely to Vilonia."

Inside the pages of the weekly paper will be news about city government, schools, business and religion, as well as features about the people that make up the community.  Various Vilonia voices will be featured every week in print and in the online version.

"I'm proud of how the staff of the Log Cabin Democrat stepped up after the devastating tornado to help the citizens of Vilonia.  I'm equally proud that after identifying a need for a local media in this community, our team quickly stepped up to fill that void," said Derek May, executive vice president of Morris Publishing Group.

Also at viloniaeagle.net, there will be an exclusive Spotted Gallery that will house multitudes of pictures from Vilonia-related events as well as video and announcements from the city.

The Vilonia Eagle has a Facebook page, which will share all Vilonia news when available.
