Revisions Planned for Southern Festivals Newspaper

Dawsonville, GA -- We have been studying and evaluating the Southern Festivals newspaper and other publishing options for some time. A trend that has developed in the past two to three years is the emergence of a new entity known as “agritourism”, natured based tourism, on-farm visits, etc.

The Hill Group Inc., owner of Southern Festivals, has developed a new publication entitled “Rural Adventures” to address the needs of this new tourism venture - agritourism. Initially, we are introducing Rural Adventures newspaper as a part of Southern Festivals.

As a result, we are temporary suspending publication of Southern Festivals and will introduce the new Southern Festivals/Rural Adventures newspaper starting in March/April 2009. All subscribers’ subscriptions will be extended two additional issues to reflect this change.

We appreciate your patronage and look forward to offering you an enhanced newspaper to facilitate your festival and rural visits. In the meantime, if you have questions or comments, please contact me at bghill@windstream.net or at 888-345-4455.

Thank you for your support and we look forward to serving you even better in the future!
