It's been a year of exciting growth for V.I.A.! The amount of people reading our stories has gone way up, our team has grown, and we're excited to bring you even more news and lifestyle stories in 2019.
In 2018, Lindsay William-Ross moved into the Managing Editor's position, Elana Shepert came on board as a reporter. Together with our Glacier Media colleagues (and a small amount of help from me) they managed to hit it out of the park.
Below are some of our personal favourite stories we wrote this year. Some of them were popular, others went viral and some of the ones that didn't were pet projects that we were happy to get in front of at least a few people.
