The Altoona Star

About

The Altoona Star is a weekly newspaper mailed for free to all residents in the Altoona School District. The newspaper focuses on the people, events, and news within the community. In each issue you will discover a unique format that includes:

A combination of articles about community leaders, business, culture, and living history
Features on local politics, city developments, education, sports, and events
Advertisements from local, regional, and national businesses
Articles, columns, and photography by local contributors
Altoona’s most complete and detailed event calendar
Letters and comments from community members

By developing our format we have created an anticipation among locals for the Altoona Star. With this anticipation comes a renewed opportunity in print advertising for area businesses and organizations.
