Bringing People Together
Newtown Square Friends & Neighbors
Our Sponsors Have Been Bringing People Together For Years This month, Newtown Square Friends and Neighbors welcomes Lindsey Poeth, CSA, owner of Oasis Senior Advisors - Main Line, a new Sponsor who provides free services to seniors and/or their families, to research and develop options for Senior Living and Housing. Lindsey Poeth’s skill and services can’t be overstated. When I first met Lindsey, I wondered why I had not known about Oasis Senior Advisors when I had to place my parents into Assisted Living. My siblings and I would have avoided worry and lost time if we used Lindsey’s free consulting. We had no idea which facility we needed, or how to fund nursing and memory care services for our elderly parents. Who does? (See ad on this page.) When I discovered how perfectly the mission of Oasis Senior Advisors aligns with our magazine’s mission to be “Bringing People Together,” I realized even more how the Sponsors of Newtown Square’s free monthly magazine have been Bringing People Together for many years, by the services they provide for us in our local community. Readers tell me how they love our magazine for its local features about Newtown Square residents and organizations. Our advertising Sponsors make that possible. While I can’t name them all here, it’s important that I ask: Do we value our hometown business leaders, not just for bringing us this magazine, but for the services they provide in our community? It’s important. In this time of Big Box stores and online buying, we’re blessed to have such great local business leaders who choose to spend their limited marketing budgets in Newtown Square, to make our hometown monthly magazine possible in print and online at www.NewtownSquareMag.com. Think about our Sponsors when seeing their ads. For example: Sheila Turner’s From the Top Studio of Dance (page 4), or Lou Marvil’s Level Up Black Belt Academy (page 21). These beloved businesses in our community have long been Bringing People Together for instruction and fun, and to develop skills and confidence. Consider our restaurants and specialty food hometown Sponsors: Newtown Square Pizza and Grill (page 26), La Locanda Ristorante (page 25), Firepoint Gril, (page 13), Casey’s and The Porch at The Lamb (page 30), Providence Pizza Co., (page 9), Luigi & Giovanni (page 29) and Weinrich German Bakery (page 6). They’re Bringing People Together, and not only by the quality of their food and good service but also by investing 14

every month in this hometown magazine for Newtown Square residents. No doubt that’s why Rey Azteca, our newest restaurant in Newtown Square, comes on board as a new Sponsor next month: they want to invest back into our community. All our advertising Sponsors have been Bringing People Together in different ways for years. But now they have one thing in common: They’re showing us that Newtown Square is important, how we’re all important to the success of their business, and how they want to be Bringing People Together through our hometown magazine. So, whenever possible, choose to do business with our hometown heroes first, and thank them for their business services in our community. NS
