Local small business owner, Kathy Anderson recently received a double Chamber welcome. Both the Payson and Spanish Fork Chambers of Commerce gathered outside her office, at 954 East 100 North, Payson, to commemorate her latest business venture, Villager Magazine.

A party followed ribbon-cutting on that sunny February 25 afternoon, with a business community that spanned the southern part of Utah County, as well as Ms. Anderson’s supportive family and friends.  “I think she’s amazing to be able to start these businesses and make them go,” said step-mom Donna Seamons.

“I'm excited to bring Villager Magazine to our area,” Ms. Anderson said.  “In looking to grow my local advertising business, Local Cheddar, I chose to expand into print media and partnered with Villager because they have the same goals for their business as I do: to help residents shop local through deals, coupons and offers from local businesses. There are so many great local businesses in our area and I want to make sure every resident in Southern Utah County knows about them.

“I also want to thank the Spanish Fork Chamber of Commerce and Payson Chamber of Commerce for coming together and joining in a ribbon cutting for me. It was a first and truly unique event to have members from both chambers present. I believe that businesses from Spanish Fork, Salem, Payson and Santaquin being able to come together and create some unity will benefit us all. I am so grateful that I have so many local businesses supporting me.”
