SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT In July,
Suburban Focus becomes Suburban Family
Magazine
Dear Reader,
At Suburban Focus, we have a mission: To
help suburban families live more active, healthy and improved lives. This mission is center to
our editorial focus, advertiser message and circulation strategy. It is the meaning behind our
tagline, “Survival Guide for the Suburban Family.” And, it is reinforced in the literally
hundreds of reader comments and calls we receive thanking us for producing such an
indispensable family resource.
To this
end, we have an important (and exciting) announcement...
Suburban Focus is
changing its name to more clearly state the kind of magazine that we have always
been. Effective with the next issue (i.e. July and August 2012), Suburban Focus
will become Suburban
Family
Magazine.
It’s important to note that the Suburban Focus articles that you
have come to know and rely upon will continue...plus, we are expanding our editorial
coverage. Here is a listing of the Suburban Family
features that will run in every issue:
