OTSEGO TOWN SQUARELocal updates for Gaylord & Otsego County

About Otsego Town Square

Otsego Town Square posts short, useful updates for Gaylord and the rest of Otsego County: weather alerts, road closures, school status, official public-safety notices, and community events.

Every post names and links its official source, such as the National Weather Service, Mi Drive / MDOT, Otsego County, the City of Gaylord, local school districts, the Michigan State Police, or the Gaylord Area Chamber of Commerce. We do not post from police-scanner traffic alone, and we do not copy newspaper or other outlets’ articles.

A person on the Otsego Town Square team reviews every post before it goes out. Posts and public replies are signed by the Otsego Town Square team. Otsego Town Square is a local-updates brand. It does not have a founder bio, an on-air host, or a named public owner.

If we get a fact wrong, we will correct it in a follow-up post. See our corrections and posting rules.

Sponsored posts

We may run a small number of paid posts in the future. Any paid post will be clearly labeled “Sponsored.” Sponsors never decide what news we post.

Our mascots

Our two cartoon reporters appear on cards and the logo. They are brand marks, not real people, and they never sign posts.
