One Year in the Prospect
The Prospect began with an article not archived, that showed paint peeling. Also in the first edition, guns were stolen from the Sierra Valley Gun Club.

The Prospect came out against the Fire District One Mitigation Fee, which didn’t make us many friends at first. If it were proposed today, we’d handle it the same way.
We also looked at unemployment in one of those early issues. It’s applicable today.
We looked at Global Climate change. On April 1st, we reported illegal growers in the hills.
We took on the AP.
We asked that we distinguish ourselves from a police state.
We spoke for the 2nd Amendment.
We whined about the poor news available.
We did a story on the denial of marriage benefits on the basis of genitalia.
We asked if county department heads make too much.
We crowned ourselves King of Loyalton.
We introduced a great new commentator, Juvani Frisk.
We got Agita.
We joined the army of do gooders and insisted on Riding Mower Control.
We reported on crime, badgered the Board of Supervisors, said goodbye to some friends and cousins, and generally worked to keep you aware of what we were aware there was to be aware of, and more. Thanks for joining us, stay aboard and we’ll see what 2010 brings! The Sierra County Prospect Staff
We did a piece on your Prospect on Geegle.
