The Burlington Free Press began in 1827 as the Free Press Weekly, becoming an evening daily in 1848; a Sunday paper wouldn't be published until 1965. The evening edition was eventually canceled due to poor sales, in favor of a morning edition. The Free Press became part of the Gannett Company in 1971.

With a circulation over 48k daily/56k Sundays, it is the largest paper in Vermont.

Visit Instructions:
A photograph that depicts your presence at the building is necessary. This can be a picture of your GPSr in the foreground in only one of your many pictures, or if you're not too camera shy, put you or a team member in the picture. Maybe even buy a newspaper while they're still in business. They need all the help they can get. No picture, no new log. And no icon.
