Goodbye, 2025 – Welcome, 2026!

Dear Readers, 

What a year it has been! We have accomplished so much as a team this year and I cannot wait to see all that we accomplish in our 139th year of operation. We already have a few tricks up our sleeve for 2026, so keep your eyes peeled for new columnists, new writers, events, and more. 

I want to personally thank you for being a reader of the RCT. Whether this is your first or your hundredth time, you all are the reason we do what we do. Our inboxes are always open for your suggestions, your opinions, your commentary, or just to say hello. 

Here’s to a healthy, happy and prosperous New Year. I’ll leave you with lyrics from one of my favorite songs;

We two who’ve paddled in the stream

From morning sun ‘til night

The seas between us roared and swelled

Since the days of auld lang syne
