CloseWhat is this?
River Valley Voice is a civic social network for people, groups and businesses located in Southwest Wisconsin and Southeast Minnesota.
OK, but what does that mean?
We’re aiming to foster a local community dedicated to discussion and expression. At our other sites at
rivervalleynewspapers.com, we cover events that our reporters and editors dig up. This site is dedicated to the stories, photos, videos and more that you capture and care to discuss around your neighborhoods – and around the news.
At River Valley Voice, every person has a personal blog, photo gallery, video gallery, and a profile. You can be as public or private as you care to be. You can add other people to your friends list, as you would on sites like MySpace or Facebook.
In addition to your individual space on River Valley Voice, you also have the option to join different groups within the community. Groups can be anything from a parenting discussion to a forum for disc golf players, a neighborhood watch association, or a way for local musicians to keep in touch with each other. If you’re interested in hosting an existing group with us, just let us know – it’s free and we’re happy to help. Just drop us a line or get started by clicking

Can I promote my business on River Valley Voice?
Yes! Businesses can participate in this local community with a profile of their own. All basic business listings are free, and they’re managed by the River Valley Voice staff. To really take advantage of the River Valley Voice network, businesses can purchase an enhanced profile for a small monthly fee. This allows businesses to stay in touch with their most loyal customers, offer coupons, showcase products and announce special events. Contact Sue Thompson if you’re interested by e-mail at
sue.thompson@lee.net or call 608-791-8244. We’re currently live with businesses connected to the wedding industry, with more to follow shortly.
Is there anything I can’t do?
You can post anything you’d like here, within reason. Check out terms of service for the full rundown of do’s and don’ts , but it basically boils down to common sense and common courtesy. If you wouldn’t say it in public, don’t post it in public.
