Then there are the excellent volunteers who do the letterbox distribution (960 copies are now printed) to residents and traders, and many other miscellaneous helpers. The Village Voice has become very successful with input from numerous members of the community contributing historical, sporting, community and local club items etc. Cheryl McLean then became involved producing the next five editions of the Village Voice and doing a great job until she went with her family to USA.Īnn Haines has remained involved as editor throughout however, in 2009 (Edition 17) Ann was joined by Wendy Williams who then produced the Village Voice and became co-editor they are to be congratulated on the effort and quality of the production. Colin, then at Bush Traders, Hahndorf, printed the original newsletters and at some time IncSync Design of Hahndorf took over and designed the newsletter with Ann again as editor. It originated from a comment from Ann Haines (then President of the Hahndorf Community Assoc) to Andrew Rammell, “ Hahndorf needs a Voice” and so the Hahndorf Village Voice was born - whereupon Ann, Sonia Hunter from Main Street and Andrew set to work! Andrew’s background is graphic design and photography and he gallantly designed the first newsletter (including titles and layout), with Ann as Editor and others writing articles and collecting photographs. The Village Voice was first published in Autumn 2005 and is edited and distributed quarterly by volunteers to all Hahndorf residents and traders. Issue No 40 of the Village Voice (Summer Edition 2014) completed 10 years of continuous publication of the Hahndorf Community Newsletter. The Voice of the Village celebrates 10 years!Įxtract from Issue No 40 of The Hahndorf Village Voice - Summer Edition 2014
