The
print version of Fair Oaks Guardian underwent change on March 6,
1997, when it ceased its print publication and became available exclusively

Oaks has changed ownership and is headed by a new editor. Gabe Banffy,

and editor. Banffy was responsible for putting the newspaper on the internet
in August, shortly after the first print edition appeared.
