“Going Green” leads the issue with a look at sustainability and eco-friendly living, tapping into the growing environmental awareness of the late 2000s and giving families practical ways to reduce their footprint.
“Curb Appeal” offers homeowners guidance on making the most of their property's first impression, timely for the season of yard work and home improvement, while “Summer Playhouse” spotlights local theater and the performing-arts opportunities of the season.
“Seasons of Our Journey” brings a reflective feature to the issue, and an Interview offers readers a closer look at a person of local interest.
The recurring departments and photo pages round out a June number balancing eco-conscious living, home improvement and summer theater as the warm season gets underway.
The recurring departments and photo pages round out a June issue that balances eco-conscious living, home improvement and summer theater. Going green, boosting curb appeal, and taking in the Summer Playhouse all share the same pages — the responsible, the practical and the entertaining together. It is the characteristic range of a Clarksville Family number, meeting the growing environmental awareness of the era while still tending to the everyday business of home and the seasonal pleasures of the stage. As summer gets underway, the issue helps families live a little greener, spruce up their homes, and enjoy the local arts, all in the same welcoming pages. The “Going Green” cover reflected a moment when environmental awareness was moving from the fringes into everyday family life, and the magazine met that shift with practical, approachable guidance rather than preaching. It is a snapshot of a community beginning to think differently about its habits, its homes and its footprint on the world.
