Support the independent voice of Miami and help keep the future of New Times free.
Exciting news for numismatists and people in general who didn't get kind of bored with the "50 States Quarters" after a few months: The United States Mint America the Beautiful Quarters™ Program has been announced, and our very own Everglades National Park will be honored with a shiny 25-cent piece in late 2014 (assuming we still have a national currency then). But what should be forever engraved on the coin? We all know the Everglades lacks a visual tradmark -- unless you just love the site of miles and miles of swamp grass -- so here are some suggestions.
Keep Miami New Times Free... Since we started Miami New Times, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Miami, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism. You can help by participating in our "I Support" membership program, allowing us to keep covering Miami with no paywalls.
