Our Mission
We

the local community organizations, public
officials, community leaders and members of the
community to
build awareness about the many ongoing exciting and
unique community activities, attractions, and
events. Our goal is to continually remind local residents
how special the City of
Clovis is, what a great place this is to live
and work and raise their families, and that Clovis is a real Gem of the
State
of California. We also aim to promote the City
of Clovis, the Central Valley, the Central
Sierras and the Clovis Way of Life to
out-of-town visitors as well as business people around the world, through
the cyber highway.

the interests of the people of Clovis and the

Meet Our Associate Publisher |
"I've
been involved in many interesting projects over

community-focused online magazine," said Rand

special place with so many wonderful things
going on every week of the year, and most of it
never gets the publicity it deserves."
