The cover feature spotlighted a local girl who illustrates hope and courage, sharing an inspiring young story of resilience — exactly the kind of uplifting local profile the magazine loved to put in front of readers.
“Pinterest Projects Done Right” tapped into the platform's craft-and-DIY craze, helping readers turn online inspiration into real, achievable results — a fun, of-the-moment feature for 2013. “Celebrate Constitution Week!” marked the September observance with a look at the founding document and its enduring importance. The health pages urged readers to “Be Aware of Potential Drug Interactions” and offered a light fitness feature, and an eggplant caponata recipe rounded out the food pages.
The recurring departments round out a September number that balances inspiration, creativity and civic pride — able to move a reader with a child's resilience on one page and inspire a weekend project on the next as fall arrives.
Pamela Magrans's cover profiled a spirited eight-year-old, Emily, who illustrates hope and courage over tragedy: a spinal cord injury left her paralyzed from the chest down, while the drunk driver responsible — a 24-year-old man — served eight years in prison, and Emily's aunt escaped with only minor injuries. The feature took its frame from Helen Keller: “All the world is full of suffering. It is also full of overcoming.”
