LANSING, Ill. (October 26, 2020) – If COVID guidelines permit, The Lansing Journal will be among the 35 local organizations who have a table at Fox Pointe as a safe way to interact with trick-or-treaters on Halloween. Staff will be there with a supply of themed candy and Lansing Journal notepads, and an invitation to have a photo taken for possible publication in an upcoming story about the event.

Families are encouraged to look for The Lansing Journal table, and trick-or-treaters are encouraged to talk about their costume choices with Josh Bootsma and Melanie Jongsma.
