What is dailytimes.com?

dailytimes.com is the website of the Daily Times, a local news outlet that has served the Texas Hill Country since 1910. It covers community news for that region, with reporting on local events, public services, and recovery efforts—such as its story on the Hunt Preservation Society's home-rebuilding project in Hunt, which received a grant to expand work after the July 4, 2025, flood.

The site is built for people who live in or care about the Hill Country: residents tracking local government, schools, business openings, and emergency updates; former residents and family members keeping up with hometown news; and visitors or researchers looking for regional context. Because it is a community paper rather than a national outlet, its value is depth on a small geographic area, not broad national or international coverage.

Access is partly subscription-based. The site offers individual subscriptions and gift subscriptions, so some articles may sit behind a paywall while others remain free. If you are deciding whether it is worth it, check how often you actually need local coverage—if you rely on it for school boards, local elections, or flood recovery updates, a subscription is more defensible than for occasional headline browsing.

A practical next step: start with the free local news sections to see whether the coverage matches your town or county, then compare that against the subscription options if you want full access. For broader Texas coverage, you might also look at The Texas Tribune, but for hyperlocal Hill Country news, dailytimes.com is the more targeted source.

How do I subscribe to dailytimes.com and what does a subscription include?

Subscribing to dailytimes.com gives you full access to its local news coverage of the Texas Hill Country, including reporting like the Hunt and Ingram flood-rebuilding project. The site offers both standard and gift subscriptions.

H3 How to subscribe

1. Go to the subscription page at dailytimes.com and choose a plan.
2. If you want to give access to someone else, use the gift subscription option instead of a standard one.
3. Complete checkout; the site lists subscribe and purchase links, though no payment platforms are specified on the page.

H3 What a subscription includes

Based on the available page information, a subscription provides access to dailytimes.com's reporting, such as the article on the Hunt Preservation Society's $2M grant to rebuild more than 40 homes damaged by the July 4, 2025 flood. The page evidence does not detail specific tiers or extras, so treat broader claims about archives or digital editions as unverified until you see them listed at checkout.

H3 Practical next step

If your goal is local accountability reporting, a standard subscription fits. If you are buying for a friend or family member in the Hill Country, pick the gift option. Before paying, check the checkout page for the exact term length and any renewal terms, since those details are not shown in the information available here.

What local news and community issues does dailytimes.com cover in the Texas Hill Country?

dailytimes.com is a local newspaper for the Texas Hill Country, published in Kerrville and serving the surrounding area since 1910. Its coverage centers on the everyday workings of small-town life: local government, schools, public safety, business openings and closures, high school sports, community events, and regional issues such as water, land use, and growth.

A concrete example from the site is its reporting on flood recovery. One story covers the Hunt Preservation Society's home rebuilding project, which helped rebuild more than 40 homes in Hunt damaged by the July 4, 2025 flood, and notes a new grant from The Community Foundation of the Texas Hill Country to expand the program to 40 more homes. That mix — a named local nonprofit, a specific grant, a specific town — is typical of what the paper does well.

Who it suits

• Residents of Kerrville, Hunt, Ingram, and nearby communities who want news about their own town rather than a distant metro.
• People who moved to the Hill Country and want to understand local government, services, and civic groups.
• Anyone tracking a specific regional issue — flood recovery, school bonds, water policy — over time.

Trade-offs

• Coverage is hyperlocal, so national and international news is limited.
• Smaller newsrooms publish fewer stories per day than large metro outlets, and some sections update less often.
• Much of the reporting sits behind a subscription; gift subscription options are also offered.

Next step: If you want to judge fit, search the site for your own town or county name and see how often it appears, then check whether the topics you care about — schools, crime, development, sports — are covered regularly rather than occasionally. For comparison, other Texas Hill Country outlets include San Antonio Express-News for broader regional coverage and The Texas Tribune for statewide policy.

How can I submit a news tip, letter to the editor, or community event to dailytimes.com?

dailytimes.com does not publish a self-service tip form in the material available here, so the practical route is direct contact with the newsroom. For a Hill Country paper serving communities like Hunt and Ingram, that usually means emailing or calling the editor rather than dropping a note through the website.

What to send, and how to frame it

• News tip: Put the essentials in the first two lines — who, what, where, when — then add context, names and a phone number for follow-up. Attach photos only if you hold the rights to them.
• Letter to the editor: Keep it short, sign your real name, and include your town and a daytime phone number for verification. Expect editing for length and clarity; most papers do not run anonymous letters.
• Community event: Send the date, time, venue, address, cost (if any) and a one-line description, ideally two to three weeks ahead. Recurring meetings usually need a fresh note each time rather than one standing listing.

Where to look for the exact address

The newsroom contact details are not in the evidence provided, so check the site's own contact or staff page before sending. If you cannot find it, call the main office and ask for the news desk — that is faster than guessing an address.

A useful decision rule

If your item is time-sensitive (a flood-relief drive, a road closure, a fundraiser tied to a specific date), call as well as email. If it is a slower piece — an anniversary, a historical feature, a thank-you letter — email is fine and gives the editor something to file.

For comparison, some Texas community papers handle this differently:

Related local coverage that may help you judge what the paper runs: dailytimes.com.

A concrete next step: draft your tip as three short paragraphs — the news, the details, the contact — then send it with a clear subject line such as "News tip: [town] [topic]" so it does not get mistaken for a subscription query.

How do I contact dailytimes.com for advertising, customer service, or newsroom inquiries?

dailytimes.com does not publish a single universal contact page for all three needs; the site organizes contact by function. Advertising, customer service/subscriptions, and newsroom tips typically route through different channels, so pick the one matching your purpose.

Advertising: Look for an "Advertise" or "Contact" link in the site footer or main menu. Local papers like this usually have a dedicated advertising representative or a media kit request form. If you cannot find it, call the main office and ask for the advertising department.

Customer service and subscriptions: The site has subscription pages at dailytimes.com with options to subscribe or give a gift subscription. For delivery issues, billing questions, or account changes, use the phone number or email listed on your subscription confirmation or the "Contact Us" page. Have your account number ready.

Newsroom inquiries: News tips, press releases, corrections, and story ideas go to the newsroom, not customer service. Look for a "News Tips" or "Submit News" form, or an editor's email in the masthead. For time-sensitive tips, calling the newsroom directly is faster than email.

Practical next step: Check the footer of dailytimes.com first, since that is where most newspapers place their contact and advertising links. If the footer only shows subscription options, call the main office number and ask to be transferred to the right department.

What is dailytimes.com's coverage of the July 4, 2025 flood and the Hunt, Ingram rebuilding project?

dailytimes.com covers the July 4, 2025 flood and the Hunt–Ingram rebuilding effort as a local community story, with the strongest example being its report that the Hunt Preservation Society's home rebuilding project received a $2 million grant from The Community Foundation of the Texas Hill Country. That article says the project had already helped rebuild more than 40 homes in Hunt damaged by the flood, and that the new grant is meant to expand the program to 40 more destroyed or damaged homes.

In practical terms, this suggests the site's coverage is useful for residents, donors and local officials who want to follow recovery funding and rebuilding progress rather than read a one-time disaster account. The excerpt also shows the coverage is tied to specific places — Hunt and Ingram — which matters if you are searching for aid, volunteering or grant announcements in those communities.

For a next step, use the site's search or section pages to look for follow-up articles on the grant, the number of homes completed, and whether Ingram is included in the same program. As a decision criterion: treat a single grant story as a starting point, then check later updates for confirmed totals and timelines before relying on the figures.
