Hi-Desert Star, 56445 29 Palms Hwy, Yucca Valley, CA (2019)

In April 1957, the Yucca Valley Chamber of Commerce put up $300 to start the first newspaper in Yucca Valley, Morongo Valley and Pioneertown. At that time we were “The Desert Star.” Although subscriptions were advertised for $2 per year, the paper was initially distributed free. It was a weekly and was printed at The Desert Sentinel in Desert Hot Springs.
