The cover feature, “Take a Deep, Clean Breath,” marked a milestone in public health: on October 1st, Tennessee took a huge step forward with its statewide restaurant smoking ban — a change with real, everyday impact on families dining out, and exactly the kind of civic development the magazine covered for its readers.

For Breast Cancer Awareness Month, the issue delivered timely, potentially life-saving coverage, joining the national effort to encourage screening and awareness during the month set aside for it.

“Reducing Risks of SIDS” offered new and expecting parents crucial guidance on protecting their infants — sensitive, important health journalism for the magazine's young families.

“Halloween Fun” and a Coloring feature brought seasonal delight for children, with the issue showcasing the youngest members of the community — a wall of kids from age two on up — in the kind of reader-photo feature that has always given the magazine its personal, hometown feel.

The recurring departments round out an October number balancing a landmark public-health change, women's health, infant safety and the fun of the season — a wide-ranging issue that took its role as a community resource seriously even in the magazine's first year.
