2014 South Metro Living Magazine
Letter to Our Members: 
We are getting ready publish the 2014 South Metro Living Magazine.  We will print 5,000 South Metro Living magazines which will be distributed throughout Inver Grove Heights & South St. Paul. Residents will be able to pick them up at the city halls, libraries, community colleges, real estate offices, school district offices and various retailers. There will also be an electronic version of the guide on the River Heights Chamber website.  Without your advertising support, this publication cannot exist.
 
Our printing partner, ECM Publishers, will be calling you in the near future to answer questions and help you reserve an ad.  Please help support this Chamber project and make sure your message is seen throughout the year by the community and fellow Chamber members!
