I own a newspaper that is published and distributed in Lansing. I have been volunteering in Lansing at all levels for nine years. I volunteer for different ages, cultures and schools. The entire city of Lansing has been a part of my life, not just the 4th Ward. I actually live on the border of the 4th Ward and very close to the 1st Ward. I do more within the walls of the 1st Ward than the 4th. I know my neighborhood very well after being involved with it for over 20 years but after driving around and delivering in the entire city, I know it well too.
