Hi all. Hope you’re enjoying summer. I know, it’s way past time for a quick note from our team. We’ve been very busy making changes I hope you appreciate. At the beginning of the year, we introduced some subtle design changes with new fonts and layout. We’ve introduced a couple of new columnists-hopefully you are enjoying Field Notes with Dennis Chastain where every other week he delights us with interesting flora and fauna stories. The University of South Carolina column provides some insight for all past, current and future Gamecocks out there and the university’s connection to the Upstate.
This week I want to introduce our new profiles page. You asked, we listened and each week we’ll be bringing you a look at some of the people within our community. They could be anyone — a local chef or mixologist, a community leader, an artist or volunteer. We want to get to know our neighbors just as much as you all do.
We’re not just making changes to our print publications. Have you visited greenvillejournal.com lately? We’ve created a podcast page where we are rounding up links with local podcasters you may want to check out. There are photo galleries from SAIL swim meets and other events happening around town. That story you’ve just read in print? Frequently we have more photos, more information and video online. We can only fit so much within our printed pages so be sure to check out the online version as well. Many more changes are in the works as we continue to be your source for community news.
