Jodie-I truly appreciate all you did for Litchfield Park with our history on your website and in the publication of the magazine for our Litchfield Park Centennial Celebration. We were blessed to have your input and appreciate your attendance at our meetings. I thank you for the blogging opportunity, for it was a unique experience for me! Stay in touch

Jodie Wilson of Discover The Region has tremendous skills.  Her work is first class and she is a stickler for perfection.

Jodie- If I was to rank order all of the ‘parts’ of our weekend long celebration I would put the magazine as first. It was so much fun to ask if people knew the history and to be able to hand them that magazine that was so professionally done. I can’t thank you enough for stepping up with the idea and for all the help along the way.

Jodie is a very talented marketer with great ideas. Her products and services are unique and really work!

I have known Jodie Wilson for many years and eagerly look forward to each issue of her Discover the Region Magazine. Her vast array of articles feature the ‘best of the best’ that the Region has to offer. Each photo filled page makes for a visual delight as well as interesting reading, offering fun and new places for dining, visiting and exploring!

The people who are featured in Discover the Region magazine are always fascinating and make me feel like I have just been introduced to a new, exciting and accomplished friend.

Publisher, Jodie Wilson always finds new Discoveries to share with her vast readership.

If I had to have just one magazine to read, it would be Discover the Region! And, coming from Hollywood, this says it all! Go DTR; Go Jodie Wilson!

We were in need of a Designer that could create a digital flip-book of our quarterly magazine for our website.  Jodie was referred to me through an outside business resource. Jodie was fast, prompt and an accommodated all of our needs.  I would highly recommend her !
