Fun catching up, after a long pandemic, with Andrew Rhodes and Carissa Herman during a Friday Growler Fill Night at their Neighborhood Kombuchery on Pleasant Street. I recommend the totally surprising Aussie Gold: pineapple, yellow bell pepper, and ginger.
N ow this is more like it! Right? Indoor dining, relaxed shopping, parties and live music and festivals—I, for one, have a renewed appreciation for the day-to-day stuff of life in Morgantown. I’m pretty sure I’m not the only one. And it’s all just in time for us to celebrate a New South Media milestone: Morgantown magazine’s 10th birthday. In this issue, we revisit topics from our inaugural issue and from issues over the years. You’ll also find the appreciations for businesses and people that always fill our magazines, along with overviews of what back to school is like for both Mon County Schools and WVU in this post(ish)-COVID-19 re-entry. Watching all of the comings and goings so closely for 10 years, we’ve developed high respect for the people whose visions and efforts literally create our town. So for this anniversary issue, we’re recognizing 10 of those
people as Movers and Shapers. Some of their names will be very familiar to you, while others try to work behind the scenes. But they’re all making a difference in this town we love to call home. We feel a lot of things on the occasion of our 10th: a little giddiness, some wonder, and a good measure of pride. But mostly we feel appreciation for you—our readers, our friends on social media, our advertisers—for being part of the lively flow of ideas and commerce that gives a citypub, and its city, snap. We can’t wait to see what the next decade brings. Stay lively!
