New Glarus 360 offers several email newsletters and alerts designed for different interests and reading habits.

Some readers want a complete roundup of the day’s news. Others prefer a weekly newsletter, only the most important breaking stories or specialized coverage focused on business, alumni or students.

You may sign up for more than one email, and you can change your preferences later.

Daily Brief

The Daily Brief is our end-of-day news roundup.

It is sent daily around 6:00 p.m. and includes everything we published that day and a summary of what we plan to publish the following day.

This is the best choice for readers who want to stay fully informed without checking the website repeatedly.

Choose The Daily Brief if:

You want a dependable summary of each day’s New Glarus news.
You prefer to receive several recent stories in one email.
You want broad coverage rather than updates about only one subject.

Community Update

The Community Update is emailed at 5:30 a.m. every Thursday and provides a broader look at the week in New Glarus. Every back issue is also archived on our website for everyone to view regardless of their subscription.

This newsletter includes a brief summary of the biggest community news that week, a preview of stories New Glarus 360 is working on and information about things to do during that upcoming weekend.

Regular features also include the Photo of the Week and What You May Have Missed, which highlights past stories that may have flown under the radar when they were first published.

Another feature, Something We Noticed, calls attention to smaller developments that may not warrant a full article but are still important or noteworthy.

The Community Update may also include helpful information about using the New Glarus 360, managing subscriptions and getting the most from your membership.

Choose the Community Update if:

You want a weekly summary delivered early Thursday morning.
You are interested in what New Glarus 360 is working on next.
You want ideas for things to do during the weekend.
You enjoy photos, overlooked stories and smaller community observations.
You want occasional tips about using New Glarus 360.

Breaking News

Breaking News alerts are reserved for the biggest and most important stories.

These emails are not sent for every new article. They are used when significant news develops that readers may need or want to know about promptly.

Examples may include major public safety incidents, urgent road closures, severe weather developments, important government decisions or other events with broad community impact.

Choose Breaking News if:

You want immediate notice of major local developments.
You do not want a daily or weekly roundup.
You prefer alerts only when a particularly important story occurs.

The Old Guard

Coming soon, The Old Guard will be a newsletter created for New Glarus alumni.

It is expected to feature stories, updates and information that help former students and longtime community members stay connected with New Glarus, regardless of where they now live.

The newsletter may include alumni news, school memories, class updates, historical features and other content of particular interest to graduates.

Choose The Old Guard if:

You attended school in New Glarus.
You are interested in alumni news and school history.
You moved away but want to maintain a connection to the community.

The Old Guard is not yet available, but additional information will be announced when subscriptions open.

Business Insider

Coming soon, Business Insider will focus on New Glarus business news and information.

This specialized newsletter will be available only to subscribers with an eligible business subscription.

Coverage may include local business openings and closings, development activity, commercial property news, economic trends, business profiles and other information relevant to owners, managers and professionals.

Choose Business Insider if:

You own or manage a local business.
You follow economic development and commercial activity.
You want business-focused coverage separate from general community news.

Business Insider is not yet available. Details about eligibility and the business subscription will be provided before it launches.

Knightly News

Coming soon, the Knightly News will be a newsletter specifically for New Glarus students and school district staff.

It will focus on news, activities and information relevant to New Glarus students, including school events, extracurricular activities, sports, student accomplishments and community opportunities.

Access will be limited to eligible student subscribers.

Choose the Knightly News if:

You are a student or work for the New Glarus School District.
You want school and student news delivered directly to your inbox.
You are interested in activities, sports and opportunities involving local students.

The Knightly News is not yet available. Instructions for student eligibility and registration will be shared closer to its launch.

Which Emails Should I Choose?

Readers who want the most complete coverage should select the Daily Brief and Breaking News. The Daily Brief provides a broad daily roundup, while Breaking News alerts provide quicker notice when an especially important event occurs.

Readers who prefer fewer emails may want the Community Update along with Breaking News.

Alumni, business subscribers and students may also want to add the specialized newsletters when they become available.

Signing up for one newsletter does not prevent you from receiving another. You may select the combination that best fits your interests.

How to Change Your Email Preferences

Open a recent New Glarus 360 email and look for the email-preference or unsubscribe link near the bottom.

Follow that link to review the newsletters associated with your email address. You may be able to add or remove individual newsletters without unsubscribing from every New Glarus 360 email.

Be careful when selecting Unsubscribe from all emails. That option may remove you from newsletters and important account communications you still want to receive.

Newsletter Access and Paid Subscriptions

Some New Glarus 360 newsletters are available broadly, while others may be limited to paid subscribers, business subscribers, students or other eligible groups.

Receiving a free newsletter does not necessarily mean that your account includes access to locked articles. Likewise, changing your newsletter preferences does not normally cancel a paid subscription.

Your email preferences and your paid membership should be managed separately.

– Choose the New Glarus 360 emails that match your interests and update your preferences whenever you would like more or fewer local news alerts.
