For the past 15 years New Bern Now has celebrated our community by publishing event announcements/promotions and maintaining the community calendar among many other things for free. It takes a lot of time and money and is not a sustainable local news business model. We are reevaluating operations and will make an announcement on NewBernNow.com soon.
