Thanks Dano and the Decaturish Team for the work you do covering the issues important to the residents of DeKalb County. I appreciate your coverage of local elections, county and city commission meetings, school board decisions, and the community events that bigger outlets pass over. Your steady, on-the-ground reporting keeps neighbors informed and connected to what's going on around them. Local journalism is critical to community awareness and engagement, and Decaturish continues to earn my support.
