January: Always a great start to the year with our annual Women Who Move the Valley feature. In this issue, you will once again find 10 amazing women who move our Valley and make a difference. Some names you might not know—and that is the idea. We want to find and feature women who make a difference and are doing it for the right reasons. I congratulate each and every one of them. (To see past years’ winners, log onto AZFoothills.com.) We will be celebrating with them and their friends and families at The Ritz-Carlton, Phoenix later this month.
February: Get ready for a very fun feature. We have been searching for the most eligible Phoenicians and what a list we have! It’s amazing how much these very successful people have going for them—except that true partner. We are really excited to share these faces and their stories with you. Early in the month, we will be at the Waste Management Phoenix Open—as we have for more than 12 years—in all the VIP areas. We look forward to seeing you out there.
March: We will be having our annual Best of Our Valley soiree, taking place at the brand new Scottsdale Beach Club. Each March, the winner with the total most Best of Our Valley votes is featured on the cover. This is always a fun surprise—you will have to wait and see what happens this year! (For event information, visit AZFoothills.com.)
We want to thank everyone for their support over the years, especially the last four years when times got tough. We made it through. We are seeing growth in print, online and through social media. The best is yet to come, and we are very excited to make 2013 a year to remember.
All the best!
