SET IN STONE

A word from the publisher

50 issues, can you believe it? We couldn’t be more honored. When we started The Osider back in 2014, we knew that Oceanside needed a voice to preserve our history, highlight the amazing people who call Oceanside home, while at the same time, showcasing all that this amazing place has to offer.

What we didn’t know is that since that time, we’d see Oceanside continue to grow into its full potential, but not without trials and tribulations. Together, we survived a global pandemic with the help of crowd funding, and support from our family of advertisers and community.

We’ve had so much support from our readership, photographers, writers, and vendors that we often pinch ourselves to make sure we aren’t dreaming. To be able to be a part of preserving our history, while making this magazine is truly an honor. We, as a staff, will never take this for granted.

Thank you all from the bottom of our hearts. We promise to continue making the best magazine we can each and every issue we produce. There are so many more stories to tell, and we look forward to bringing them to you for years to come. We proudly raise our glasses in your honor to say cheers to the next 50!
