EAST BAY LIVING AT ITS BEST

"Every new beginning comes from some other beginning's end."
- Semisonic ("Closing Time")
I thought this an apt song for what is in essence closing time for Valley Lifestyles magazine. It's been a long, fun road (not without its challenges, but very rewarding nonetheless), and a road I consider very lucky to have traveled down at all.
However, due to various circumstances, we have had to face the very difficult decision of closing down Valley Lifestyles. It was not an easy choice, but our sister publication, San Joaquin magazine, was experiencing a rapid surge in sales and awareness, so we needed to reroute resources from Valley to San Joaquin. As we mentioned, this was not an easy process. We tried other possibilities and stopgaps to try and keep both publications going on the limited personnel available, but the business climate being what it is, we saw no other alternative.
It has been an honor and a joy to be involved with Valley Lifestyles magazine and walk along on this journey. I firmly believe that Valley Lifestyles was the best regional publication serving the TriValley area, and I want to thank every advertiser and reader who believed in the magazine as I did.
Thank you,
MY PERSONAL THANK YOUS
If it wasn't for the following people, there would have been no Valley Lifestyles. I thank you for your time, your commitment, and most of all in your passion for the magazine and the communities it served.
