The Lawrence Journal-Worlld is putting together a project called 24 Hours in Lawrence. Tomorrow, they'll send out reporters throughout the community, the Watkins Community Museum will be set up to take oral histories, and you can submit your own content. They'll pull all the material together in reports online, on the air and in the paper. They also hope to store everything they get in the Museum as a permanent record of a day in the city's life.
If you live here, write up an account of your day, your neighborhood, or something interesting in your life, and send that in to the Journal World between tomorrow and the 15th.
