Grand Ledge residents now have a brand-new way to be part of The Ledge Ledger! 🗞️ The community paper has officially launched a set of online submission forms designed to make it quick and easy for locals to share stories, photos, events, and news tips directly through the website.

📰 Share Your Stories
The new Article Submission Form lets anyone in the Grand Ledge area submit community stories, sports recaps, announcements, or press releases.

📸 Capture the Moment
If you’ve taken a beautiful photo around town — maybe the bridge at sunset, fall colors along the river, or kids playing at Jaycee Park — you can now submit it for Photo of the Week. Each week, one image will be featured in the newsletter and on social media, complete with photographer credit.
