For more than 10 years, I have invited our readers to appreciate all that our community has to offer in The Village Connection Magazine. With world-class dining, shopping, history, art, nightlife and so much more, the North Shore is a true destination spot from New York City to the world. With first time visitors and those that come to visit family and friends every year, Village Connection Magazine and our social media networks serve as a foundation for "What to do and Where to go" in Huntington and the surrounding communities.
Because I truly love Long Island, I am driven by desire to see our local businesses thriving. I have a personal interest as I’ve become friends with so many individuals and organizations over the years, that I know our self promotion is essential for us to continue to grow.
The Village Connection magazine is and always was a community contributed effort from the local artists and entertainers (as well as myself and my boutique team) from the start. Now I have an opportunity to share the wealth of creativity and uniqueness of our contributors, in social networks. The Village Connection Magazine's traditional print readership has continued to grow within Huntington and as we expand our reach through our digital edition our fans now number in the tens of thousands and the numbers continue to grow every day.
Village Connection Magazine's staff and contributors have become a full-service publishing company that offers our customers a wide-range of options, including advertising and editorial in our print edition, a digital edition that includes links to websites, video production and photography, social networking services, e-mail marketing, graphic design, and multimedia website packages to meet all of your promotional needs.
My staff and associates are creative and innovative. We all continually upgrade our knowledge base and skills because we know that our customers have the day to day operations of their businesses to run and our team of experts stay current with marketing trends that change with the speed of light.
We all know that that there is power in numbers. The Village Connection Magazine has a very large network of business associates that extends deep into the Huntington Community and well beyond. We support local organizations, including the Historical Society, Junior Welfare League, The Townwide Fund of Huntington, Huntington Arts Council, and many others. We’re in good company here, as so many businesses within our community work side by side with us in this effort.
We’re moving forward into our second decade, and the sky’s the limit. We hope you will join us. In the meantime.,
I’ll see you in the Village...
