The Our Rossmoor is the official print publication of the Rossmoor Homeowners Association. Originally, back in 1957, the newsletter was called the Rossmoor Signature News and was hand typed and printed and mailed as a letter to members of the Association each month. Since that time it has been published in varying formats and frequencies, but its purpose has always been the same: to keep Rossmoor residents informed.
Today, Our Rossmoor is a quarterly publication with features on everything Rossmoor: fun events (celebrations, festivals, scholarship & writing contests, etc.), important neighborhood topics and issues, and of course our regular topical columns.
It’s a great way to keep the Rossmoor neighborhood in touch. Maybe you’d like to contribute a story or interesting tid-bit to one of our upcoming issues? We’d love to hear from you. Contact us here and share your thoughts. Who knows, you could be recognized as one of our writers. And if you’re interested in being one of our sponsors, you can find out more here.
