Boardman, like many places in the Mahoning Valley, is home to so many great restaurants. One such location, settled on South Avenue, is Magic Tree Pub & Eatery. This modern restaurant has a friendly and “homely” atmosphere that immediately places it in a category of its own amongst many of the bars in the area. A stage for talented local musicians to perform ads to this pub’s appeal, offering live entertainment on weekend nights while you eat and drink.

On the outside, it may seem like just a regular deli, but when you walk in the left side door (yes, you have to walk in the left side) you’ll find a place that is bursting with character and everything that makes Youngstown so special: friendly people, amazing service, and of course the INCREDIBLE food.

I have been a full-time employee at 898 Marketing for 6 months now, which is absolutely crazy to me. If you add in the time I’ve spent here as an intern, it will total up to around 9 months, and I am incredibly thankful to be a part of this team and company.

Life. It is the most precious and fragile thing on this earth. Every day we wake up and face the day ahead, not knowing the events that will transpire. These events can make us as equally as it can totally break us down. We don't know what the day will bring, nor if we will have another day after it is over. As I, like most people, come to grips in my own ways with the shocking news of the tragic helicopter accident that took the life of one of the all-time greatest basketball players, Kobe Bryant, along with his 13-year...
