HIGHLIGHTS FROM THIS MONTH
FROM TRICIA: Did y’all make it out to Schertz’s Movin’ on Main or maybe the more recent Síclovía in San Antonio? Both of those events are meant to get the public out exercising and considering overall health and wellness. In this month’s Health Care Edition cover story, reporter Jarrett Whitener takes a look at events like these and other initiatives Northeast Metrocom cities are taking on to combat sedentary lifestyles. Also, inside you’ll find hospital listings, updates on some recent health care development projects and a snapshot of what health care means to our communities. In our other upcoming special editions this summer we will look at residential real estate and public education. In July, we will consider how multifamily residential is booming in Metrocom cities with several key developments. We also plan to ask the experts what tips they can offer on buying or selling a home, and upgrades that might bring a better price or value. In August, our public education edition will include coverage of what our school districts are doing to help our children better manage their mental health. For example, the Schertz-Cibolo-Universal City ISD had success in the 2022-23 school year with a series aimed at parents to tackle some of those tough subjects.

What’s your typical day as a CI Publisher? JL: Most days you’ll find me visiting with leaders and businesses from across San Antonio. I’m involved in several chambers, and also sit on councils and boards that are aligned with our mission and vision. By participating locally, I’m able to have thoughtful and insightful conversations about what our readers and businesses need, and how Community Impact can help fit that need. I also work closely with my local team to discuss feedback we receive, share story ideas, and offer suggestions to continuously improve internally. I’m a big believer in celebrating others, and you’ll typically find confetti on our office floor because of the daily celebrations and the smiles it brings to people’s faces.
Aside from Community Impact, what have you read recently? JL: “The Shark and the Goldfish” and “Extreme Ownership” are two books. I’m also reading “The Very Hungry Caterpillar” almost every night to my 3-year-old.
Email newsletters are booming for CI; why should readers subscribe? JL: Our newsletters offer a daily update of what’s happening in each community. We include local events and news briefs that are relevant and useful to our readers, highlighting everything from timely election results to unexpected road closures to new business openings. Our readers find the quick and simple format resourceful and to the point!
