Welcome to westofthei.com. Karen and I are striving to make this site the ultimate source of news and information about Western Kenosha County. Here you should expect to find information about local people, local government, local schools, local business and anything else that has an impact on people who live in Western Kenosha County. We will be looking to keep our posts complete, but easy to read and with plenty of photos and video. Our philosophy about what is worthy of placing on westofthei.com is pretty broad — as long as it has to do with WKC. Our approach to community journalism has long been there’s no story too small for the big treatment. On westofthei.com, we intend to live by that motto. Expect a lot of daily updates, so keep coming back to see what’s the latest.
Most posts will be enabled with comments, with the hope that we can get some community conversations going . The site is completely searchable, so you should be able to easily find earlier stories about whatever topic interests you. We also will be looking for your help in other ways. We plan to have a regular weekly feature called “Assignment Desk” where readers will be able to make suggestions about a story we should cover. The story idea that gets the most support in the comments will be to the one we look into. We’re always open to hearing news tips and publishing publicity about things that are happening here either in advance or after they have taken place. Stay in touch with us at westofthei@yahoo.com.
