The Jefferson City News-Tribune picked up two awards at the annual Missouri Press Foundation Better Newspaper Contest Awards Luncheon Saturday due in large part to the writing skills of Lockwood High School graduate Michelle (Dixon) Brooks.
Mrs. Brooks earned her first MPA honors with an honorable mention for an article in the best rural life/agriculture story, and her writing and editing was in large part responsible for the newspaper's capture of a third place award in the best family living coverage category.
Mrs. Brooks, a 1992 Lockwood High School graduate, received her start in journalism writing about Lockwood sports and school activities for The Carthage Press in the early 1990s.
