LANSING STAR:
Dan Veaner, editor of the Lansing Star Online addressed the Board and
presented the following:
Thursday, January 05, 2006
I'm pleased to present a star to the Town of Lansing. It is named "The Lansing
Star," and it shines over the Town in the Northern sky. Karen and I registered it
with the International Star Registry so we could present it as our valentine to our
town on behalf of the Lansing Star Online.
12 years ago we decided to move from our Ridge Road house, and we
considered moving closer to our families in Florida or Minnesota. After thinking
about it quite a bit we decided to stay in Lansing, because we couldn't think of a
better community in which to live and raise a family. So we moved two miles
North, to Searles Road.
This community is filled with inspiring people in it that make you want to do
and be better yourself. It's caring hand -on, involved community. It's a town that
takes care of its people without excesses in governance or taxes. Karen and I are
grateful for the positive response the newspaper has had here, and this is a
symbolic way we can "give back."
So this evening it is my pleasure to present the star to the Town. I am presenting
a certificate that proclaims the star is called "The Lansing Star" with the
registration date of coordinates. There is also a map that shows where the star is
in the sky. We chose a star in Ursa Major, also known as the Big Bear
constellation, because it contains the big dipper, which will make it easy for the
town residents to find it.

I am also providing a stack of cards the Town can hand out that tell how to find
the star over Lansing. We'll be also giving these cards to Lansing teachers,
because it will be fun for kids to find their town's star and help get them excited
about astronomy. We have established a permanent information page at
http://ww.lansingstar.com/thestar/.
I had a thrill last Saturday when a friend in North Lansing told me he saw the
Lansing Star. This told me two things, both hopeful. First, the star is truly
shining over Lansing. And second, it proved that sometimes Lansing's overcast
weather does go away.
