A Place Called Reston (from New Town Publications) and Reston Observer; the Reston Connection is still published and the Reston Times was folded into the Fairfax Times. I don't want a prize (I have a pretty good "in" with Red Velvet Cupcakery!)

The correct answer is Reston Observer and A Place Called Reston (phone directory).
Amusing that many of you think the Connection is no longer publishing. It is, but this shows you are turning to Reston Patch for all your news delivered much quicker.
By the way, Observer editor Chris Moore and reporter Leslie Perales both work with me at Patch, so the local news vision continues - just online. Also, Reston Patch can take the place of A Place Called Reston in many ways. Check out our business directory if you need a phone number or a list of restaurants, etc.
Random winner will be drawn from the correct responses in a bit.
