We are a husband and wife team that does most of our “office work” at night, so we are not generally in the office to answers phones during what are considered normal business hours. You are always welcome to leave phone messages for us and we’ll do our best to return your call as soon possible. However, our phone volume can be very heavy due to hundreds of advertisers, and questions, comments and suggestions generated by mailing more than 11,000+ issues to readers each month. Email/text is preferred because we can answer those from a variety of locals and times.

Important Monthly Workflow dates:
10th: Ad files or Ad changes are due.
15th: Ads should be approved by clients and ready-to-publish. Ads are placed and considered final.
20th: Our publications are prepared for commercial printing.

We appreciate your support and look forward to working with you.
