Staff Reporter

The Chaffee County Times is seeking to fill its staff reporter position. The Times serves Buena Vista, Colo., and the whitewater haven Upper Arkansas River Valley. Nestled between two mountain ranges, we enjoy mild winters compared to our state's ski areas, which are short drives away. The position covers town trustee meetings, school boards and other typical beats. What makes this community news job unique is the opportunity to report on our expansive public lands and the outdoors recreation and tourism that is the lifeblood of the valley's economy. We're an award-winning weekly newspaper in a two-stoplight, mountain/river town that has a big reach. We're family owned, you won't be lost in a corporate HR database here where readers recognize you on the street and in the store.
