About Sacandaga Sun/Shelley D. Brienza




While expanding the growth of Sacandaga Digest Publishing, nestled in the southern tip of the Adirondack Mountains, which primarily was based online (www.sacandagadigest.com) with our business magazine feature articles, and seven years into the making, I have decided to move my ideas and motivations to a print piece.

It has long been a dream of mine to produce an upscale magazine showcasing the roles of many who offer solutions to some of life's problems and ultimately lead people to make healthy lifestyle choices. Welcome to the Sacandaga Sun Holistic Resource Guide magazine online and in print!

Our motto of “Communication, Education, Sharing and Vitality” will start as a seed of information growing in time to a full bloom, embracing a positive outlook, creativity, discovery and growth for the mind, body and spirit.

It is my goal to bring new ideas and resources into our reader's lives. Sacandaga Sun, through its magazines, ads, and editorial content, will be a vessel to inform area people about positive wellness management principles in everyday life and will encourage interaction among citizens as business people and the community alike.

I ask the public and business sector to participate online and voice your opinions, comments, concerns or suggestions for future editions via our Facebook page or at the website found at: www.SacandagaSun.com.

Creative expression is a healthy and rewarding part of life. It allows you to embrace your individuality, while connecting with others. The magazine has a commitment to be a platform to profile businesses who are representing alternative solutions while educating persons leading to a positive vision that can both encourage and empower people to make healthy lifestyle decisions.

Our Goal

What is my mission? My goal is to create a resource guide for all kinds of alternative, healthy lifestyle, holistic lifestyle, Eco- Green choices available or Arts and Music, Education, History postings, Wellness for Body, Mind and Spirit, Meditation, Yoga and even classified listings for anything that falls within our categories.

When you break down what each section entails, it is a lot to learn. And learning is what I hope to be able to provide you with through reading my articles. Sacandaga Sun will be providing to the public and the business sector a full color magazine that will include topics of interest such as:



~ Healthy Living

~ Holistic/Alternative Therapies or Healing

~ Eco-Green

~ Meditation & Yoga

~ Art & Music

~ History & Education


I will also offer a classified advertising section.

Upcoming posts on http://sacandagasun.blogspot.com will go more into detail in what we are looking for from you, the public or business sector within each section of the magazine. This is in part a community effort. I strive to offer a platform to people to get their message out or help educate others in opportunities to choose a healthy lifestyle.


Kindly, Editor-in Chief,

Shelley D. Brienza
