what are you thankful for?

I forgot to post this around Thanksgiving but it is too cute to pass up. I ask kids at Olson Elementary School in Woodstock what they are thankful for, and also how they think one would cook a turkey.

Also, speaking of kids, here is a video of me seeing if I am as fit as a fifth-grader.

So how did the pull-ups go?

We have talked before about the whole community columnist participating in the story thing. Now that you have more experience at it, do you feel that there is a risk that participation on the part of the journalist dominates the story?

I feel like the real takeaway from this story was a bit lost: The fact that PE teachers are only teaching 40% of the gym classes because of budget constraints.

Your thoughts?
