LANSING, Ill. (November 19, 2021) – Entering into Thanksgiving week, The Lansing Journal is thankful to be part of “a community worth caring about,” as Josh Bootsma says in the video below. You’ll also hear what (in order of appearance) writers Karen Abbott Trimuel, Katie Arvia, Quinton Arthur, Noah Johnson, Carrie Steinweg, Landon Ford, and Jennifer Yos are thankful for. (To get to know our other reporters, visit the Writing Team page of our website.)

Quinton Arthur deserves a special shout-out for the time and skill he contributed to this project. He gathered all our various recordings and edited them into a lively compilation of thanks, and that’s one of the reasons we are grateful to have him on the team.

Happy Thanksgiving from The Lansing Journal!
