BRINGING TO YOU THE WAYNEDALE NEWS
The first publication of The Waynedale News came out on September 2, 1932. The name of the paper at that time was The Waynedale Press. Arden McCoy was the editor and the paper was a single sheet. It was hand-delivered door to door just as it is today. It is now distributed to over 11,000 people on the southwest side of Fort Wayne. Listed below are the hard working carriers that bring you the “good news” about Waynedale and the Fort Wayne area.
Meredith Lindsay, 11 and Jamison Lindsay, 9 both attend Indian Village School. Their dad, Jim, works for the Redevelopment Commission for the City of Fort Wayne and helps them on their paper route. The kids spend their route money on movies and fun things from the store.
Emmily McCune is 12 years old and carries in the South Wayne area. Emmily is in the 6th grade at Memorial Park Middle School. She used some of her route money to buy Christmas gifts. Andrew McCune, Emmily’s brother helps her on her route. He will be 9 until January 13th and is a 4th grader at South Wayne Elementary School.

Skyler and Cierra Kindy deliver in Pheasant Run area. They are both students at Wayne High School. They play baseball and softball at Wayne and keep their throwing arms in shape by delivering The Waynedale News.
