ALTON - Jillian Dwiggins is the Art Fahrner-Edward Jones Alton High School Remarkable Redbird of the Month. Nobody puts together a more successful combination of A's, strikes and goals than the most recent Remarkable Redbird, sophomore Jillian Dwiggins.

ALTON - The Salvation Army locations in Alton and Granite City are facing a significant shortage of food items for their pantries, prompting a community response through a food drive organized by Freer Auto Body at 4512 North Alby Road in Godfrey. The "Have a Heart" food drive has started and will continue until Feb. 15, 2025. The recent winter storms have slowed typical food donations to The Salvation Army. Community members are encouraged to drop off food donations at Freer Auto Body. Additionally, those who wish to collect items at their own businesses, churches, or other locations can coordinate with the organizers for pickup. Margaret Freer, one of the owners of Freer Auto Body, emphasized the urgency of the situation, stating, “The need in our area is great. In today’s world, no one should be hungry. We should count our blessings every day, and if you have the ability to give, you should help those in need.” She urged the public to participate in the campaign,
