Winter is truly one of my favorite seasons with the anticipation of the bustling activities, approaching celebrations and, yes, beautifully wrapped gifts. The Puget Sound is a magnificent place to take it all in. The holidays are also a perfect time to think about those in need in our community and how we and our organizations give back.
Along those lines, this issue features nonprofits, educators and community leaders who are doing ‘selfless work’ and deserve our praise. We hope that you will find one or two that you will want to support during the holidays and in the coming year.
To bring a little peace to your holiday shopping season, we have created our annual holiday shopping and gift guide highlighting our favorite ideas, products and those local stores that offer something special that won’t be found otherwise.
Nothing is sweeter than the gift of wedding nuptials, and since the holidays are often a time for wedding proposals, we feature our favorite wedding venues to help newly engaged couples find a wonderful location.
In our wellness section, we offer wellness ideas and tips for the entire family this holiday season. I hope that you enjoy reading this issue online or in print and in doing so think about ways to give back along the way.
Kindest regards,
