New to the exhibits this year was the Family Expo. It was geared toward exhibits for the family. The article, overall, was fairly easy and only took me a day to call my contacts, do interviews and turn in the article.

Second Article
For my second article, I wrote a short piece on the Delaware Home Show and Delaware Family Expo. These events happen each year and vendors come to show off new items for the home, including decorations, roofing, siding, heating and cooling systems, flooring and really any thing you can think of.

First Article
For my first article, I was assigned to visit a school district in Delaware who claimed to be the first district to offer a vegetarian program for its students and faculty.
I had to speak with someone who worked for the state of Delaware to make sure, in fact, they were the first district to do so. After doing that, I contacted members of the nutrition staff of the district to set up an in-person interview. I also spoke with the people who developed the program. I was also able to interview students who had been eating the new vegetarian food.
