Macaroni Kid Chicago Loop Turns ONE!

June 29, 2011

On July 1st, 2010, I hit publish on my first Macaroni Kid issue.  I was nervous, excited and had no idea what the year would bring.  And wow, has it been awesome! 

I've learned more about our wonderful city of Chicago.  My subscriber base has grown from 30 friends and family to over 800 Chicagoans.  My page views have jumped from next to nothing to over 20,000 a month.  (WOW!) And I've participated in some awesome events and put faces to some of the 800 plus subscribers.

I've loved delivering Macaroni Kid to you each week and helping you plan fun things to do with your families.  I want to make my second year even better, so please leave me a comment below telling me what you'd like to see this year.  What do you like about Mac Kid?  What would you like more of?  Less of?  Fill me in!  Macaroni Kid is all about you and your families and I want this newsletter/website to be exactly what you want! 

Thanks for a great first year!  I look forward to the next year and hope to meet even more of you!
