About the Evening Sun

Mission Statement

The No. 1 news source for Hanover and Adams County.  

About Us:

For the past century, The Evening Sun has been covering Hanover in York County and all of Adams County. The Sun is the No. 1 news and information source for the Hanover area.  It was founded in the borough by H.D. Sheppard and C.N. Myers, its first publication dating back to April 29, 1915. Before then, it was known as the Hanover Independent.  

The newspaper was a daily publication until Jan. 2014, when it converted to a print publication schedule of Sunday, Tuesday and Thursday.  

Online, readers can reach us at www.eveningsun.com. We also have an Evening Sun app for your tablet and smart phone. The Evening Sun has Twitter, Facebook, Instagram and LinkedIn accounts.  

After several newsroom moves since its inception, the newsroom now calls its home on the first and second floors at 37 Broadway in Hanover. The building is the former Tanger Hardware building. 

The organization has 5 newsroom employees.
