Sarah Stokes: Creator, Executive Producer and Host
This show has turned into such a fun part of my week at NewsCenter 13. I split my workdays between working on Wisconsin Journal and the other newscasts at 5, 6 and 10 p.m. For Wisconsin Journal, I come up with the topics, with some help from viewers and co-workers. Then I spend all week getting to the places we feature, doing interviews, writing and editing what you see on the air! It's a big job, but I have some help from two of my favorite co-workers! I also need your ideas. We've aired just about every suggestion from you so far, and I'm working on covering the latest ideas. Thank you!

Mary Rinzel: Special Reports for Wisconsin Journal
Mary spends every Wednesday out shooting, interviewing and editing for her segment of the week. She's been very busy at local restaurants getting "Morning Mixes" and you'll see her smiling face hosting a "Fast Fix" or doing a report at the beginning of the show. Mary has always been enthusiastic about this show and I value her help and energy so much!

Duane Wolter: Photographer for Wisconsin Journal
Duane has been part of this from the beginning. He's traveled all over Western Wisconsin with me on our Wisconsin Journal adventures. We've gotten lost trying to find some of the fun places and made many memories, including trying to avoid frostbite last winter getting great shots of a park full of holiday lights! Duane won an award for his photography on this show. You may have seen it. It was the piece on Dells Mill in Augusta.

Production Crew for Wisconsin Journal
Raji, Jason, Ryan, Jon, Andrew, Darin, Brian and several more people are behind the scenes every week, making sure this show looks good! It takes a team, and they are great at their jobs! My husband (NewsCenter 13 Managing Editor/Anchor) Chris Herzog or producer Evan Bolin are also in our subcontrol booth every week making sure I stay on time!

Meteorologists for Wisconsin Journal
The entire Skywarn 13 crew gets in on the forecasting for our shows.
Thanks to Nate, Kurt, Mark and Ashley!
