WHY WE LOVE READING
“I love it because the restaurant reviews are helpful, and the spotlight stories about people in our community who really make a difference and contribution enhance our sense of pride in our city. We especially like the segments about service companies told from the perspective of the owners of those businesses - we're more apt to call them, rather than just selecting from the Yellow Pages, because we've been made aware of their training, years in business, commitment, and what they intend to achieve for their customers. Thank you!” –Sarah Bailey, Reader

“My entire family loves reading Glancer Magazine because it is all about the town we live in.......keep up the great work.”
–Reginald Borish, Reader

“I love reading Glancer Magazine because I find out about interesting people and businesses in our area. I also like to check out the "Scene around town" pictures to see if I know anyone in them.” –Kathy Rhear, Reader

“My husband and I look forward to receiving Glancer Magazine every month because it gives us tips on all the social opportunities in the community. Being that I take care of my three lovely granddaughters, I read up on all the kid-friendly events for the month as well. Additionally, we turn right to the Terrific Teacher section. Our son is a local teacher so we love checking to see if he or any of his coworkers show up in that section. We feel that Glancer Magazine does a great job of highlighting local businesses and restaurants as well, it's a resource we turn to often. Keep up the great work!” –Al & Paula Staron, Readers

“Hello. We love reading Glancer Magazine when it arrives because it keeps us up-to-date on the things that are happening and places to go around the area.  We moved to Wheaton in 2007 from the Seattle, WA area, so it is really good to read and learn more about our community.” - Greg and Krista Blaum, Wheaton

TO MY PLEASANT SURPRISE
"I just spent a few minutes going through your Green Issue. When I looked at the cover I thought 'here we go again -- another man-is-bad lecture from the global warming zealots.' But, to my pleasant surprise, the global warming hoax was only mentioned in your interviews with the three residents. Instead, you listed a whole bunch of things folks can do fairly cheaply and easily to save money, avoid waste and conserve energy. Well done." -Mike Thompson, Naperville

THANK YOU FOR THE FUN MAGAZINE
"I first read The Glancer at LaSpiaza when one of my friends was featured as a chef from Wheaton. I have lived in the Wheaton area for most of my life, and I look forward to reading each issue, as I generally know many of those featured or pictured in the magazine. I have purchased a subscription for myself and for my parents. My father was a pediatrician in Glen Ellyn for 35 years. We lived in Wheaton during that time and my parents are now retired and live Florida. They enjoy keeping up-to-date with the people, businesses and events in both Wheaton and Glen Ellyn. Thank you for this fun magazine!" -Cathy Hetrick, Wheaton

Just because many of us are fortunate enough to have homes with heat, it doesn't mean there aren't residents out there who are in need of a warm place to go come wintertime. Thanks for making this known."
- Anonymous, Naperville

WELLNESS FOR 60 AND BETTER
"Thank you so much for featuring an article for us old timers on where we can go to get (and stay) healthy in Naperville. Often too much influence it put on working out for the young and vibrant and not those who are senior citizens. I plan on signing up for the Tai Chi class come spring. I just had knee surgery and am still recuperating, but once I'm better- look out world, here I come!" - Margie B., Naperville

HUGE FAN
"I am a huge fan of The Naperville Glancer.  I think it is innovative, fun and informative.  I have been a Naperville resident for the past 18 years and every time I pick up the Glancer I learn something new about Naperville!" - Kavita Chopra

LOVED YOUR WHEATON/ GLEN ELLYN MAGAZINE
Congratulations on launching a fabulous new
magazine!  As a professional writer, I was encouraged to read your request for reader input regarding "Stylish Residents."  When I think of the stylish residents I know, the real knock-outs are the ones who are beautiful on the outside, and the inside. I hope some of those I have are considered for future issues. Anyway, thank you so much for your time, and interest in reader input.  Your magazine is truly an asset to the community.  Congratulations again.  - Gina Kraman

LOOKS GREAT!
I saw the first Wheaton/Glen edition - it looks great! Congratulations and on thanks for bringing such a quality publication to our community . - Kathleen Talenco, Glen Ellyn Park District

I REALLY ENJOYED THE CELEBRITY FEATURE
"What a great feature on Alan Krashesky. I never knew that my favorite news reporter (who I watch everyday, by the way) lives in the same town as me. And, like my husband and I, he has adopted children from China. It's wonderful!"
- Joy F., Naperville

THANK YOU!
"A BIG thanks for doing an issue on technology for old-fashioned people like myself. My kids keep telling me to get with the times and now I have so many resources that I can use to do so...locally. Thanks again."
- Bridgette M., Naperville

ABOUT THAT FURNITURE ON THE JUNE COVER...
"I first want to congratulate you on a great magazine for Naperville. I often am skeptical about publications for Naperville because they are usually just glorified advertising supplements. This is different and I read every issue cover to cover. Thanks. What prompted me to write was the cover photo of the June issue. My wife and I love the furniture but couldn't find any reference to it in the magazine. Can you tell me if it's available locally? And if not, do you know how I can track down a retailer or the manufacturer? Keep up the good work! - Thomas Gavin, Naperville

Editor's Note: Thanks for reading! I'm sorry we don't have any information on the actual furniture that was featured. However, Pottery Barn features a very similar (almost exact) outdoor furniture set - it's called their Chesapeake Sectional. It's on sale too at www.potterbarn.com Enjoy!

I THINK I KNOW THE ANSWER...
"Hi! I'm DiDi, The Program Director and afternoon host at 95.9 The River; a station for the burbs and from the burbs!  I just wanted to say hello and that I have been reading your magazine more as my husband and I just moved back to Naperville.  I grew up here and have been at 95.9 The River for over 3 years now.  We recently purchased a new home in Naperville and have been receiving the magazine....and I think I know the mystery photo this month....isn't it The River's Rockin' Dragon???!!

Editor's Note: "Hi Didi and welcome back! Yes indeed it is..keep watching for more great Mystery Photos. You can find this month's photo on page 65 .

LOVE YOUR MAGAZINE!
"Hi! Love your magazine and my guests at the Harrison House Bed & Breakfast do also." 
- Lynn Harrison, Harrison House B&B

A GREAT RESOURCE
"This issue was so different than the last few issues but just as resourceful...and entertaining! As a mom of 4, I loved reading about where to have a birthday party and all that the Park District has to offer. While we utilize it, I never knew how much more was available. Now I do! Thanks again ."- Adaline Cary, Naperville

THANK YOU!
"Thank you for your story featuring Naperville CARES Cuisine for a Cause.  I sincerely appreciated your kind attention to the topic.  Making the Calendar was great as well.  Thanks a million!" - Jeanne M. Buddingh, Buddingh & Associates, Inc.

HOPING YOU CAN HELP
"Several issues back my wife and I noticed an advertisement in your magazine for a person/company that performs custom painting on walls.  We can't seem to find the issue or the company and we would like to have someone give us an estimate on painting some clouds and scenery in our daughter's room. Would you happen to know who the advertiser was or have a recommendation? Any help / guidance would be greatly appreciated." - Bill Budig

Editor's Note: I believe the company you are looking for is Storybook Walls in Naperville. They can be contacted at (630) 416-1506. Happy decorating and thanks for reading!

ENJOYED PORTRAITS
"I enjoyed reading about the three Naperville teens in your new feature PORTRAITS. I am looking forward to reading upcoming features. Will this always be about teens and kids or will you feature others as well? I was just curious." - Melinda S., Naperville

Editor's Note: PORTRAITS will always feature local residents doing great things for our community, but it will not always be kids and teens. In fact in this issue we feature foster moms (page 19), in June we will feature father & son business teams....thanks for reading!

THE REACH IS INCREDIBLE
"Thank you for the nice article you ran about me in this month's issue.  The reach of your magazine is incredible!  I have heard from friends, neighbors, business associates and my stock broker.  My older daughter, who lives in New York City, even called to ask me about the article.  A friend of hers, who just moved to Naperville from San Diego, called her to tell her she had just read the story. You should be proud to publish such a beautifully written and designed - and well-read - publication! - Jini Clare, Clare Communications

MORE BOUTIQUES PLEASE!
"Thank you for your feature on boutiques in Naperville in the May Issue.  One thing that makes Naperville special is its unique downtown shopping.  It is nice to focus on these businesses, but so many were left out.  I would like to see more of these businesses featured." - Sarah T .   Editor's note: Keep an eye out for our new features this month- one of them is actually the "Boutique of the Month!" Don't forget to send suggestions about which boutique we should feature next month.  

I SHARED IT WITH MY HUSBAND
"Thank you for the fabulous issue on Moms and Mother's Day- I "shared" the 7 spectacular mother's day gift guide with my husband!  I don't know yet if he took the hint- but either way I had fun reading.  I'm glad that you tackled the subjects of adoption and foster parenting in Naperville, since it usually doesn't get much coverage." - Kris Kracer  

MORE PEOPLE, PLEASE?
"I always love reading the Naperville Glancer to see who I might recognize, or who I might know that's one of your contest winners.  I keep hoping someday it will be me, but so far, no luck.  I would love to see more stories about people throughout the community, as their stories are so rarely told in the news."  - W. M.  

A SMOKE-FREE THANKS!
"I just want to thank you for dedicating space in your March issue of The Naperville Glancer regarding a Smoke-Free Naperville.  I really appreciate your giving support to others in the Naperville community who would like to be out and about without having to encounter second-hand smoke in indoor public places.  Thank you for publishing the information and getting the word out on smoke-free dining establishments." - Lynne Jele, www.smokefreenaperville.org  

ONLINE SOMETIME SOON?
"I really enjoy the magazine. Thank you for sending it all these years. My question is, will you ever have the magazine online? Often, soon after my husband throws it in the recycling, there is something inside I want to refer back to. If it were online, I could simply visit your website. This would be great!" - Jill Ames, Naperville
