Neshoba, a new quarterly glossy magazine supplement, will be published by The Neshoba Democrat beginning in March, it was announced.
The magazine supplement will feature the people, places and things that make Philadelphia and Neshoba County such a fine place to live, said Neshoba Democrat editor and publisher James E. Prince III.
The magazine will be a supplement to The Neshoba Democrat and distributed widely throughout East Mississippi and at Pearl River Resort.
The editorial focus of the inaugural issue will be tourism and newcomers, which will replace the Democrat's annual newcomers guide.
Each quarter the magazine will focus on Neshoba County life, from the many cultural events like the Neshoba County Fair that take place here to people who grew up here and have gone on to make a name for themselves.
"But we'll take some back roads in all parts of East Mississippi, too, heading down the gravel roads and byways to dig up stories on lesser known personalities and places," according to a promotional piece for the magazine.
Prince said to expect the magazine to demonstrate a wit and irreverence unlike the pages of the staid Neshoba Democrat.
Some of the featured departments will be Food, Meet the Neighbors, Books, Travel along with many others.
