“LEXtoday is my absolute favorite newsletter to get to sit down with a cup of coffee at work and start my day with what’s going on in the community. I love how many free events I have now been a part of simply because I didn’t know they existed before the newsletter.” — Reader Brynley H.
“Just wanted to tell you I start almost every day reading the LEXtoday newsletter, and I’m so grateful for your work. It’s a quick read and I feel like I’m up to date with the highlights of the city. I would say it’s engaging, concise, and current.” — Reader Jessica K.
“I loved the story about Rocky, the rock that looks like a dog and is adorned by the neighborhood in cute, festive outfits throughout the year. The LEXtoday story inspired our hunt (and discovery!) of Rocky.” — Reader Rachel W.
“I enjoyed the article about all the local parks —who knew we had so many!” — Reader Valentina L.
“LEXtoday is informative, diverse, and whimsical.” — Reader Alan S.
