utumn activities abound in Barry County. Whether trekking through a corn maze, biting into a locally grown apple or taking a color tour, October has much to offer. Merchants, farm markets and local organizations specialize in making this time of year family-friendly. Cotants Farm Market, for example, has added an indoor zip line for young children, inflated obstacle course, bounce house and haunted hallway to its other offerings. Pictured above, Berkley Andrews, a St. Rose School student, makes a perfect landing off an indoor zip line at Cotants. Look inside this Reminder for the story.

WELLNESS BEGINS INSIDE! October is Spinal Health Month Many people go to a chiropractor because they are in pain. When you make chiropractic care a part of your lifestyle you can avoid many of the aches and pains that so many people suffer through. You will find that your joints will last longer and you will be able to engage in more of the activities you love. Most people are under the assumption that if they don't feel any pain that there is nothing wrong with them, that they are healthy. Unfortunately, pain is a very poor indicator of health. In fact, pain and other symptoms frequently only appear after a disease or other condition has become advanced. Just like continuing an exercise program and eating well in order to sustain the benefits of exerr cise and proper diet, it is necessary to continue chiropractic care to ensure the health of your musculoskeletal & nervous systems. Routine chiropractic care can help ensure that your physical problems do not return, and keep your body in optimal condition.

Newspapers uphold community principles and values If it wasn’t for a Coca Cola container, I never could have taken on my first job at J-Ad Graphics. When I got the chance at eight years old to take papers off the press, I wasn’t even tall enough to reach the machine, but I wasn’t going to miss my Jon at his desk in Lowell today. first chance to work at the business my grandparents, Mel and Alice Jacobs, started in Hastings 1947. Thank goodness for Coke and the boost I needed to join the family business. Before officially joining J-Ad Graphics as an adult I worked in advertising for a time. I also ran my own business in high school and college. When J-Ad lost one of its best salespeople, I went to work for the Sun & News for a summer and eventually ran that paper for a number of years. It was a time when Caledonia was really expanding and it was a time that was exciting because I enjoyed the people, the community and every day that I was lucky enough to represent the company. A few years later, J-Ad purchased the Lowell Ledger and Buyers Guide at a time when there were a lot of controversial issues on the table and big change coming in the community. We made a lot of changes, especially with staffing and structure, and we fixed a lot of internal problems with how the paper looked and with how we did business. What we’ve been able to accomplish in LowelI goes right back to my parents and grandparents who taught me the business principles and personal values I now use every day. Listening to my grandfather talk about politics, business, and world affairs every Sunday was a huge influence on me as a young boy. Those Sundays always started with church and then, after breakfast with my family, I'd make my way to my grandfather's house through the woods
behind the J-Ad Graphics office, and we would talk. That’s where I got my education on how a downtown works, how communities work, how a business works, how industry works and how the newspaper business works. My grandmother, Alice Jacobs, provided her own lessons. She was a master salesperson and, every summer, I would tag along on the sales route to every store and listen intently to every conversation. Of course, my favorite part came at the end of a successful day when we’d enjoy a hot dog and a root beer at the Dog N’ Suds where she’d help me analyze the sales game. From my father, Fred Jacobs, I learned about how important Main Street is to a town, a lesson that came directly from my father and grandfather. Without a strong Main Street, I'm convinced a community will never be strong. With a strong Main Street, all of a sudden schools are better, roads are smoother, and civic pride is even more immense. My vision for the newspaper industry is optimistic, but cautious.
Fred, Mel and Jon Jacobs in 1994. As technology has grown and expanded, we have many wonderful tools at our disposal, so we can take time to be creative. Jeanne Boss, our editor at the Ledger, and I are kind of loose cannons in our industry because we're not afraid to ask, “Why not try something different and find innovative and attractive ways to report and present the news?” Newspapers can do that. Newspapers can find a way to get more in depth and provide a more complete picture than television or the Internet. Social media can be a wonderful thing, but a lot of newspapers have jumped in with both feet too
quickly. A business cannot be sustained that way. My thought is to embrace it, but not get carried away with it. The Internet has actually had very little impact on our business. The real impact on the larger newspaper industry was the purchase of hometown newspapers by large corporations. Big companies own the majority of the media industry today and there are very few independents that remain. Whenever industry’s consolidate, readers lose diversity nd opportunity. A local newspaper's job is to shine a light on local government and local issues. The role of a newspaper is to ask questions, to go out and see what's going on in the community and to hold officials accountable. A community newspaper like the Lowell Ledger may be a town’s sole news outlet and can help promote issues specific to that community. That’s what J-Ad newspapers do. Newspapers have to tell people things they didn't know, things they might find interesting and things they want to know. If we do that, people will read the newspaper. Hastings is my home. My wife, Kristina, has two businesses in town, The Hanger and Jilly’s. Because of her business acumen, we constantly talk about business and how to improve our hometown. Kristina reminds me of my grandmother because of her business ethic and gift for communicating with customers. She, like Alice, remembers everyone by name and their histories. They care about their customers in a personal, friendly way. That is one reason why people still want to shop locally. My sisters and I grew up under fantastic mentorship. Our parents and grandparents taught us to put the community first. If we can continue to remember the values we were taught, the future is bright. I never took for granted the time I had with my grandparents and I'm proud of what we've accomplished. Jon Jacobs, Publisher, The Lowell Ledger Buyers Guide
