Extra! Extra! New Weekly Paper

Welcome to the East Bank Ink, a new weekly newspaper about us, our neighbors, and our neighborhood. We each love South Bend and care deeply about our neighborhood, your neighborhood, the East Bank. Together we invite you to join us on this journey to produce East Bank Ink. Initially this publication will be a single two-sided paper, with pages added as our neighborhood contributors write more. Thank you for reading – we will be back next week.
