Your Answer Will Help Shape The Early Bird

Blue Bag Media

The Early Bird has undergone a transformation over the past few months. Changes have been made in the layout to make the paper much more readable. But, we want to know what you think of us. Have we developed into a community newspaper with the important information readers need to keep up with events and people in the community or are we primarily a shopper focusing on advertisements of local and national business?

There is a one question survey at the top of the middle column on this page. Please take a moment and answer the question and help us become better able to serve Darke County and the surrounding area.

Thank You,
Early Bird
