I can’t tell you how much I appreciate that. It was almost twenty years ago that I started Contra Costa Marketplace, and the community has always been very supportive. A lot of work goes into putting the magazine together every month, and the positive feedback we get makes it gratifying. Deborah ludlow Stevens This issue includes our annual “Hercules Spotlight” section. See page 18 for features and photos highlighting this city. I’ve seen Hercules grow and change dramatically over the past two decades, and its future continues to be bright. Thank you to the Hercules business community for helping make the Spotlight section a success. Have a lovely April! Deborah The centerpiece of this issue is the “Hercules Spotlight,” starting on page 18. Thank you to the people and businesses in Hercules who contributed to this special section. If you are a resident of Hercules, you may see yourself or some friends in these pages. If not, you will certainly discover reasons to make Hercules a destination.
