Story Matters: Janet Peterson remembers rolling down Lookout Hill as a child
Janet Peterson remembers her father taking the kids to Lookout Hill- and is reminded of her own memories downtown whenever she sees kids rolling down the hills at Meijer Gardens now.
The Rapidian's Nonprofits section features stories written directly by local nonprofits about their work. These stories reflect their perspectives, not The Rapidian's editorial voice.

We build community when we share our stories - whether they be a memory, an experience or just simply telling what we think is great about this place. While at various ArtPrize venues throughout the event, The Rapidian's Story Matters project asked several local citizens to share their stories. STORY MATTERS. is a story collecting project from The Rapidian and GRTV.
