Palm Springs | Corporate's to visit on Sept. 9

The list of locations scheduled to receive a visit this year from the pooh-bahs continues to grow. I'm a tad tardy in posting the following memo sent to employees by Publisher Richard Ramhoff of The Desert Sun. (Spreadsheet lists all sites in this series.)

Folks,

I’m very pleased to announce that The Desert Sun will host some special visitors from our corporate headquarters. Chairman and CEO Craig Dubow and President and COO Gracia Martore will visit Palm Springs the morning of Sept. 9. U.S. Community Publishing President Bob Dickey also will be here. They will host an employee meeting to talk about Gannett’s strategy and answer your questions. That meeting is tentatively scheduled for 9:30 a.m. in the Community Room.

Craig and Gracia have been visiting many sites this year to talk with employees and hear highlights of the efforts in each market. We are fortunate to have them and to share the good work we have done. Your department directors will have more information as we get closer to the date, but I wanted to let you know so you can plan for this special visit.

Please keep your posts focused on Gannett and media-related subjects. Note that I occasionally review comments in advance, to reject inappropriate ones. And I ignore hostile posters, and recommend you do, too."
