Welcome to the Neshobe Current, your online/electronic source for news, events, history and general happenings about town and the surrounding areas. The Current endeavors to fill the information vacuum left when The Brandon Reporter closed operations after being the exemplary newspaper of record in one form or another since the 1800s.
A dedicated team of volunteer members coordinates and oversees this effort of having a sustainable publication keeping our communities well informed. That being said, if you are interested in helping this endeavor in any way you can, please reach out to us at [email protected].
Thanks for reading. Thanks for caring. Thanks for the support. To subscribe to our weekly email digest, click here to subscribe.
