Congratulations to Lookout Eugene-Springfield. I am so glad you are here! I first heard that this publication was a possibility on March 14, 2025, and the email said there were “27 days to go!” I immediately jumped on board, became a supporter and have never regretted it. Quality journalism is incredibly important to a community and a publication that exhibits such professionalism and has the resources to do long-form investigative reporting is a real rarity these days.

I continually learn new things from Lookout and feel so very fortunate to have this fine publication in our area. Congratulations on your first birthday. For all of us, I wish you many many more.
