APRIL ISSUE - CHARLOTTE WALSH: RUNNING TOWARD CHALLENGES
I can't think of a better way to connect a community than by featuring the community members and the business owners who want to interact with them in the same space.
If you're a resident, we showcase YOUR stories, every month. You are the stars of the show. A different family or group of residents is featured each month as we honor achievement.
If you're a business owner, you won't find a better way to connect with a micro-targeted community of people who benefit from your services every day.
I'm committed and will be your connector. It's what I do. Let's do it together.
