Parsippany Focus was first released as a monthly printed newspaper product on October 1, 1989 mailed to every resident of the Township of Parsippany.

At that time, Parsippany Focus was named the "Official newspaper of the Parsippany Area Chamber of Commerce (PACC)". Publisher Frank Cahill, was named on the Board of Directors of PACC in 1989, eventually elected Vice President, and then President-elect (but due to commitments with Focus did not continue as President, just remained on the Board of Directors.)

Parsippany Focus converted to a weekly newspaper serving the residents of Parsippany during 1990. Eventually Parsippany Focus was named the legal newspaper of Parsippany-Troy Hills. This was the first weekly newspaper in many years appointed to serve the needs of the Parsippany council.

Unfortunately, due to competition of newspapers in 1996, and the changing advertising market of major companies devoting their advertising dollars to major newspapers, the advertising revenues of Parsippany Focus decreased to a point where it was not profitable to publish. Focus ceased publication in 1996.

Since then we have received many requests that Parsippany needs a "hometown" newspaper, that covers Parsippany news and events.

Times have changed.... Due to the technology of the internet, we have created this website for the people of Parsippany, to publicize the events that involve their everyday life. Birthdays, anniversaries, weddings, business briefs, honor rolls, club news, community announcements, school happenings (the same basic information the print version of Parsippany Focus featured from 1989 through 1996). All Local, All Parsippany™
