Established in 1964, Mid-Valley Publications (MVP) is an employee-owned group of six weekly community newspapers in Merced and Stanislaus counties. With the Merced County Times, Atwater-Winton Times, Hilmar Times, Waterford News, Hughson Chronicle, and Denair Dispatch, we are one of the longest-standing publishers of local newspapers within these two counties.
Mid-Valley Publications offers a variety of important services including providing relevant and positive news, community announcements, local and national display advertisement creation and publication, classified advertisements, legal notice publications, obituaries, and other important event announcements.
Mid-Valley Publications was founded by John Derby, who retired in 2004 as Publisher, though he continues to provide a guiding hand in daily operations of the company.
