Not-so-Serious 4th Grade High Peaks Reporters! |
||
On Thursday, March 6th, 2008, High Peaks Post reporters from all grades went on a tour of the Denver Newspaper Agency Printing Plant in North Denver. This facility not only prints the Rocky Mountain News, Denver Post, Boulder Daily Camera, but a myrid of other misc. publications such as Westword and The Onion - it is HUGE! While Mr. "K" had a role in setting this up, the real hero was Editor-in-Chief Maggie Yost who organized the reporters, their parents, permission slips, carpools, handouts, snacks, and more so we could all attend. A few pictures are below - despite what it may seem, there isn't a lotta light to work with in the facility, so the images are a bit grainy/noisy. |
