A little about our Sponsors
THE ADVERTISER
The Advertiser is the local area's oldest, largest and most trusted newspaper, established in 1880. It is published weekly in three localised editions - the Campbelltown-Macarthur Advertiser, the Camden Advertiser and the Wollondilly Advertiser.
In 2008 the Campbelltown edition was declared the best local newspaper in Australia by PANPA (Pacific Area Newspaper Publishers Association). All three editions have been named, consecutively, as Fairfax's "Newspaper of the Year" in 2006, 2007 and 2008.
The secret to our success is strong but positive reporting, a local team that cares about our area, heavy involvement in community activities and a determination to back and raise money for worthy causes, from the fight against cystic fibrosis to funding for CareFlight.
The 24 Hour Fight Against Cancer Macarthur is one of the causes dearest to our hearts. The Advertiser has supported the event with publicity since the event began in 2005, but since 2007, has also been an active participant.... fielding a "Team Advertiser" and raising thousands of dollars.
