Publisher's Letter




With our May issue it is our opportunity to celebrate the local businesses, stores and entrepreneurs that make Murfreesboro and Rutherford County so special. The mission of VIP Murfreesboro is to highlight the great things going on in this community and focus around the philanthropy that goes on each and every month. It is our intent to be the local magazine that each and every one of you can count on.

In our May issue there is no shortage of those events that highlight local non-profits and groups doing great things in our community. There are over 30 events in the issue and they cover the full spectrum of what Murfreesboro has to offer.

In order to achieve our mission, it is imperative that we have a staff that embodies the community and has a strong sense of pride in Murfreesboro. We are blessed to have a great group managing VIP Murfreesboro. Carrie Beth Catron, Eric Lusk and Mary Elam Polk have been the backbone of our success. We are also fortunate to have Lee Rennick writing and Joyce Taylor has been a staple for us in event coverage since we purchased the magazine.

Thank you to all local businesses and entrepreneurs who have supported us and have been the reason for VIP Murfreesboro’s success!

Dabora, Inc.
Jennifer Connelly, Jeffrey Howard and Christy Womack
