Dreams push us to strive for our personal best, but it is dedication that takes the contributions of many and delivers Inside Northside to your mailbox. We appreciate the voice that you’ve given us in the community, and we work hard to live up to it with every issue. Our dream is to tell the stories, introduce the people and highlight the best of what is the northshore.

Like some of the tiny countries that send their best to the games, we are a small organization competing in an industry filled with large companies and deep pockets. As such, it is critical for each of us on the team to do more as we reach for our own gold medal: serving our readers, our northshore community and our clients who advertise with us.

Publishing a magazine may not be the decathlon, but some days it certainly feels as though it is. For the success of Inside Northside, I thank my dream team: Brad, Jan, Candice, Courtney, Jeanie, J, and Jane. A hearty welcome to our new managing editor, Laura Kalnajs, and best wishes to all who have helped us along the way.
