At the San Diego Press Club awards ceremony last night, we won awards in several categories: a 1st prize for our article on the Serenity Horse Therapy Center, a 2nd prize for our interview with the Arancibia family, and a 3rd prize for my Letter From The Editor about Graduations. From our first issue, we have strived to produce a magazine with quality articles, photos, and layout. Pictured are Kim Skulavik (creative design), Jeff Bettger (publisher/editor), and Faride Vivas from Serenity Horse Therapy. www.TheTowneLocalBonita.com www.TheTowneLocalChulaVista.com

Meeting you and witnessing the spirit of The Towne Local Bonita has been one of the most inspiring moments of this journey. Your publication feels to me like a modern echo of Benjamin Franklin's vision--a local press not only meant to inform, but to uplift, connect, and enrich the fabric of its community. What you are building is more than a magazine, it's a legacy of storytelling, inclusion, and heart.
