LANSING, Ill. (August 31, 2021) – The 2022 Life in Lansing Calendar is all about Lansing — Lansing photos, Lansing event dates, Lansing school district information, acknowledgements of Lansing history, and links to significant Lansing articles The Lansing Journal has published over the years. It’s a custom calendar, printed on thick pages and bound with a metal spiral. Each page is 12×12″, and the date squares are a spacious 1.5×1.75″.

We created it as a celebration of launching into our fifth year of providing news to our community.

We also created it as a way to raise funds — so we can continue providing news to our community.

Month by month

We’re printing only 50 of these beautiful calendars, and we will give them to the first 50 people who sign up as monthly supporters of The Lansing Journal. Adding new monthly supporters will help create the financial foundation we need in order to continue reporting, publishing, and delivering local news every day.

All our monthly givers (not just the new ones) have the special satisfaction of knowing that they are essential workers in our hometown news scene. Without their investment, The Lansing Journal ceases to exist.

And now, this new Life in Lansing calendar will serve as an additional reminder. Month by month, supporters will see bright, colorful photos of events and people unique to Lansing — events covered by Lansing’s only newspaper.

Taking a risk

We wish we could print more of these beautiful calendars. We wish we could give them to everyone in Lansing. But the cost is a significant investment for us, so we need to ensure it achieves a significant return. We’re taking a risk, hoping our community will respond.

Will you be one of the 50?
