The “2015 Local Holiday Gift Guide” led the issue with a roundup of standout presents from Clarksville businesses, steering the season's spending toward the local shops that give the community its character.
“A Final Turn and a Last Goodbye” brought a reflective, bittersweet note to the year's end, honoring a farewell that mattered to the community. “Exploring the Art of Tai Chi” introduced readers to the gentle, meditative practice and its benefits for balance and calm — a fitting subject for a season that can feel anything but calm. The health pages cut through nutrition confusion with “Fat-Free and Low-Fat: What You Need to Know,” and a Coloring Contest invited families to join the fun.
The recurring departments round out a December issue that pairs holiday cheer with reflection and calm — encouraging readers to shop local, honor what has passed, and find a moment of stillness amid the season's rush, a fittingly gentle close to the final Clarksville Family year.
The “2015 Local Holiday Gift Guide” braced readers for the season only weeks away — the work parties, the family dinners, and the pressure of finding the perfect gift for everyone on the list. Its answer was a collaboration of items for the men, women and children in a reader's life, every one of them sold by a small business somewhere around the city — from candles to hot tubs and everything in between — the guide's whole point being to please the hard-to-buy-for while keeping the season's dollars close to home.
