Kimber Lanning and her super crew at Local First Arizona have done it again.

Presenting their collection of local businesses; each highlighted by specialty and mapped out on a conveniently sized, one stop shop for local goodness. (Maybe we should start featuring brochures that make us happy?)

More than 70 businesses -- all belonging to Local First -- sprinkle colorful maps on four different brochures: Phoenix, Tempe, Scottsdale and Glendale.

Local First has printed 75,000 copies of the Phoenix map (pictured below) for distribution this year. You can check out the maps online or pick up a copy at your local visitor's bureau, convention center, tourism or realty offices. They're also available at Sky Harbor International Airport and local businesses (we picked ours up at Red Hot Robot).

If you'd like to participate in Local First or give away the brochures at your business, contact Kimber Lanning.
