It’s a busy news day, so let’s jump in…

In case you missed it yesterday, we are thrilled to announce that The 528, Rio Rancho’s only free, digital news hub, has found a new print and email home!ย 

The Paper., the metroโ€™s arts and culture paper, is coming up the hill with a new Rio Rancho edition and our partnership means local readers will get The 528โ€™s news and The Paperโ€™s other coverage all in one each week.

More on that later this week but, for now, please be patient as we make a few updates to our emails and website to make easier for you, our readers.

The 528 is live at riorancho.news and can be found on Facebook, Instagram and YouTube. Make sure to follow, subscribe and share.
