I’m a native of Galesburg and other than going away to college for my first year and the four years in the mid-70’s when I lived in the Quad Cities, I have lived here my entire life. There are many things that I love about Galesburg, and definitely some things we need to improve.
When I meet someone who has moved here, I always ask them why. Sometimes I’m told it’s to be close to family, sometimes their job brought them to the area, it might be the affordable housing, Lake Storey, the location, and on one occasion I was told it was The Zephyr, Galesburg’s alternative newspaper published from 1989 until 2010!
Looking forward to reading more on growing our town!
