For more than 60 years, Conneaut Lake was served with its own newspaper – The Conneaut Lake Breeze – published weekly.

When the historical society was formed Joanne Scaduto and Jerry Sidner donated more than $2,500 in memory of their grandfather, who was the editor, to have the papers transferred to microfilm.

The society has all the copies on microfilm. Through the efforts of Rep. John Evans, a $5,000 grant was secured to purchase a microfilm reader and printer. It is in our office and allows quick access to the paper and the ability to print an article from the paper.

Years on microfilm are from 1920 to 1980s when the paper ceased operation.

In addition, the Shontz Memorial Library donated hard copies of all the papers, so they too are available.
