SCP making more of an online presence

Let’s face it, we always have a smart phone or some kind of tablet nearby. It’s how we communicate and get information quickly. Parents rarely have time to sit down and (as much as I hate to admit this) read a magazine.

The Space Coast Parent Magazine staff realizes this. We want to make sure we’re using the best possible means to get you helpful tips, useful articles and details about family-friendly events. Because of this, we’ve decided to discontinue the print version of SCP, but the information will still be there. In fact, it will be even more visible.

We’ll be posting a lot on our Facebook page so if you don’t like us yet, give us a follow at Space Coast Parent. You can also find the latest parenting news and stories on our website.

The features you love and look forward to will continue. There will still be a photo contest every month. The winning child will get a professional photo shoot and be featured in the FLORIDA TODAY newspaper. Details on how to enter will be posted on our Facebook page.

Each month we’ll still have our Out and About feature where we ask families questions and post their pictures and answers. We’ll also continue telling you about fun events your family can enjoy in the community. In addition, we’ll have links to interesting articles relevant to you and your family.

You’ll find our Facebook page much more engaging. We want to hear from you. We want your input on what kind of articles you want to read, what topics are important to you and we want to hear your parenting tips.

This may be the last print edition, but we’re excited to transition SCP to better meet our readers’ needs. Please email me at mspitzer@floridatoday.com with your suggestions on what you would like us to cover and remember to look for us on Facebook.
