The team at Spanton Media are eagerly awaiting the end of 2020! A year that will go down in history, that’s for damn sure.
So while we sign off on the final hours, we thought we would recap some of the biggest stories of the year. These are some of the highlights, the ones that struck and nerve and were shared, liked and commented on. It’s also a nice collection of the folks who have contributed to out pages during 2020, so a big shout out to all of you who have had a byline this year.
