As your guide, I'll lead you down memory lane to celebrate the Boorowa News, an institution that has grown from its earnest beginnings to a beacon of local pride. Discover the milestones that propelled it to its acclaimed status, including its groundbreaking microfilming project and the sweeping changes it has witnessed in the world of journalism.
