We are extremely proud to be the longest running publication in the region. From significant changes to the towns and neighborhoods that make up the South Shore, to national tragedies, recessions, a pandemic, historic elections and countless other national and local events that have impacted all of us, we sure have seen a lot over the last 24 years. The key to our success after all this time remains the continued support of our clients, advertisers and readers who make The South Shore Magazine possible, while also supporting the wonderful organizations which make up our community. As the phrase goes "it takes a village," and the success of our local business and non- profit communities depends on us all being regular patrons, NOT just on "small business weekend," but each and every day, all year long.
