IN West Mifflin Spring 2014 | Page 4

FROM THE PUBLISHER PUBLISHER Wayne Dollard I ’m happy to report that 2013 was a year of tremendous growth for IN Community Magazines. As we begin the new year, we want to thank our advertisers as well as our school and township partners for your continued support. We’re also thankful for our dedicated staff of editors and designers who work diligently to produce 34 quality publications each quarter to provide readers with the latest community news, events, sports, school and township information as well as features on fascinating people, new businesses and community history. To read our latest issues, visit icmags.com. This past year, ICM expanded beyond community-based publishing with the launch of two regional publications: Pittsburgh Home & Lifestyles and Faith Pittsburgh, both of which received tremendous response from readers and advertisers. Pittsburgh Home & Lifestyles made its debut in December as Pittsburgh’s premier guide to stylish living, sophisticated design and the best resources for your home. Each quarterly issue will highlight real estate, home design, garden and landscape, home décor, home services, homebuilders and interior design. In addition, the magazine will showcase the latest products and gadgets as well as fashion, jewelry and housewares. To read the latest issue, visit pghhomeandlifestyles.com. Faith Pittsburgh premiered last spring as the region’s only non-denominational publication devoted to inspiring, educating and unifying the area’s 1.3 million Christians. To read more, go to faithpittsburgh.com. Also, in an effort to better serve our readers and advertisers, we’re excited to announce that ICM will be opening offices in the north and east suburbs early this year. As your community partner, we welcome your feedback. Feel free to email us at [email protected] with ideas or suggestions on how our magazines can better serve you.
