About the Post

The Conneaut Valley Post is local news for Springboro, Conneautville and the townships of the Conneaut Valley in Crawford County, Pennsylvania.

Last updated Oct. 16, 2026

Know what's happening. Understand why it matters. Stay connected to the valley. We cover the decisions, places and people that shape daily life here, and we keep a directory and a calendar so you can act on what you read.

What we cover

  • News on local government, schools, business, roads and weather, and the people and history of the valley.
  • A directory of valley businesses and institutions, including farm stands, home-based trades and township offices that are hard to find online.
  • An events calendar with public meetings and community events in one place.

Who runs it

Robb Luther founded the Post and serves as its publisher, with help from a small team of valley residents. Every bylined story names the people who reported, wrote and photographed it, and each has an author page listing their work. When an author has a role in something they cover, such as a seat on a township board, we say so in their author box.

Who pays for it

The Post is self-funded by its publisher. Reading it is free, and there is no paywall.

As we grow, clearly labeled local sponsors and featured directory listings may help cover our costs. Sponsors never decide what we cover or how. Our sponsored-content policy explains how paid content is labeled.

How we report

  • We attribute facts to the official records, agencies and people they come from, and list our sources at the end of each story.
  • Analysis, opinion and sponsored posts carry a label, so they never pass as news.
  • We fix mistakes openly. See our corrections policy.
  • Each directory listing shows when we last checked it, and we check every listing at least once a year.

Our AI policy

A story bylined with a person's name was reported and written by the people it names. We don't use AI to write it.

We use AI only on pieces credited to Conneaut Valley Post rather than a named person, and an editor reviews each one before it's published. A piece with that credit may include content produced with AI tools.

Each author can also state their own AI policy: whether and how they use AI in their work. It appears in their author box on every story and on their author page.
