The following excerpt was sent out from The Saratoga Sun:

Virginia Parker was recently promoted to the role of editor/publisher at the Saratoga Sun and will be running the community newspaper, which is in its 135th year of covering the Platte Valley.

Parker began working for the Sun in August 2022, but is no stranger to the communities of the Valley. Over the years, she has worked for the Saratoga Museum, the Saratoga High School and the Saratoga Police Department.

She has also donated a significant amount of her time in volunteer work such as the Grand Encampment Cowboy Gathering and the Platte Valley Ministerial Association. According to Joshua Wood, operations director for Stevenson Newspapers, it was this involvement in the community which helped the company make its decision.
