Wednesday Gazette: December 11, 2024

Hello Riverside, and Happy Wednesday! I'm sitting on top of the world this morning after The Gazette's first-ever team holiday party with our staff team and regular contributors at my house for a night of celebration. Thank you for being a regular reader of The Gazette and helping support this vision – we're just getting started building the newsroom Riverside deserves!

PS. Today is National Noodle Day, which makes it the perfect time to visit Master Gan's if you haven't already after reading Seth's review on Sunday.
