From the Traverse guidelines:

When shaping an article for us, consider first that it must be strongly rooted in our region. The lack of this foundation element is one of the biggest reasons for our rejecting material. If you send us a piece about peaches, even if it does an admirable job of relaying the history of peaches, their medicinal qualities, their nutritional magnificence and so on, we are likely to reject it if it doesn’t include local Northern Michigan farms as a reference point. Our coverage area ranges north from Cadillac, Michigan and includes the Upper Peninsula.

General categories of interest include:

  • nature and the environment
  • regional culture
  • personalities
  • the arts (visual, performing, literary)
  • crafts
  • food & dining
  • homes and cottages
  • history
  • outdoor activities (e.g., fishing, golf, skiing, boating, biking, hiking, birding, gardening)

We seldom use material dealing with such issues as education, social services, criminal justice and local politics.
