ANNIVERSARY ISSUE A wild ride‌ Who would have predicted that the year 2020 would be so full of twists and turns and unexpected highs and lows? And we aren’t done yet. The cancellation of many major events and other modifications have taken a toll on business and morale. But our best days are ahead. I for one am extremely optimistic. As we come upon our 14th year as your Community Magazine and in recognizing my first full year as publisher, we are celebrating the growth of our company and Effingham Magazine. We support area businesses and organizations in unique ways to help them Jan Southern pivot and survive these challenging times. As a company, we adapted and found ways to reach even more readers in spite of what may have seemed daunting. In addition to our normal distribution, Effingham Magazine is now mailed to thousands of homes each issue, hundreds of subscribers are taking advantage of home delivery, and visitors to EffinghamMagazine.com grows daily. Through it all, we continue bringing positive and uplifting stories from our community. This Anniversary Issue is no exception. There are some pretty remarkable people featured in these pages, as well as highlights from the shops, restaurants, medical offices and wellness organizations throughout Effingham County. I hope you enjoy this Anniversary Issue of Effingham Magazine. We certainly have enjoyed creating it for you.
