Publisher’s Message Dear friends, I expected to introduce you to this month’s issue by noting that we now begin our 14th year of publication. This milestone now seems minor in relation to current events. For the first time ever, we almost decided not to print a monthly issue of Clarksville Living. I don’t mind telling you that the thought of this sent me into several mini breakdowns. It seemed like daily another cluster of our clients told us they would not be able to run an ad in April because they were uncertain of their future plans. Our clients are like family and hearing this each time broke my heart all over again. The more I pondered the situation, though, I realized the importance of going to press for April. Now, more than ever, our readers need information and diversions from the status quo. Families are planning new routines as they deal with social distancing and closed schools. This publication needs to be a part of that process. This temporarily smaller issue is still packed with many great articles on small business love (our cover story, beginning on page 12) and how our amazing community has come together (while practicing the aforementioned social distancing, of course) to give back when it’s needed most. This month our calendar of events has been effectively cut in half. We tried to do as much due diligence in making sure the events were still happening, but please double check before planning to participate. Also don’t forget to check out the local comfort food guide on pages 16-17 to help you safely still enjoy all your favorite local dining spots amidst the COVID chaos. We love and appreciate our readers and advertisers more than we can ever say. As always, thank you for picking us up! While you’re perusing this issue, be sure to check out our new logo. Our anniversary seemed like an appropriate time for a “refresh.”
