We are pleased with the reception Early Access Pass has received from regular readers of The Batavian. New people sign up for the service every day. We asked a group of these new members to provide a few words about why they support The Batavian. Here is what they have to say.

The Batavian has been my go-to source for local news. I can find up-to-the-minute news and find it quite helpful. Even my out-of-state children use it to keep up with what is going on. This is a great spot for what's happening around town.-- Jeanne Penepent
Our local community matters. While people get excited about national news stories, the truth is we have very little impact on the national stage. What’s more valuable is to know what’s happening here in Genesee County, where we have a real impact, but the first step is staying informed. That’s why I’m proud to support the exceptional reporting of The Batavian with a yearly Early Access subscription.

I have always loved reading The Batavian and appreciate that the site is timely and keeps us up-to-date, particularly during the blizzard this past December. The photography is exceptional, and I especially love seeing school and arts events showcased. Upon returning home from my colleague’s retirement concert Tuesday night, I was excited to see a photo and story already posted! I am enjoying my Early Access Pass to local news and events.

For years, I have read the Batavian every morning. It has allowed me to keep up with local events and happenings. The new charge is minimal for unbiased reporting, which is difficult to find in this day of polarization. Thank you, Howard, for all you do and best wishes for continued success.

We especially loved the handwritten card and note we received from Kay Lennon:
Dear Howard & Team: Thank you for The Batavian "tote." It is "super!" I will be waiting to see who is the first person to ask, "Where did you get The Batavian Tote!" You can be sure I will smile.
