United Parenting Publications, Inc. (UPPI) has created Get Up & Go, a
new magazine for active and involved grandparents. The

million baby boomers are becoming grandparents. The average
age of the first-time grandparent today is 47.
Get Up & Go aims to help young grandparents make the most of the challenges and opportunities before them today. It provides editorial content on topics such as family relations with their grandchildren; planning for the future regarding health, work, money and housing concerns; their financial, spiritual and creative legacy and opportunities for fun through travel, family activities and local events and resources. Get Up & Go will be published three times per year and be distributed through local grocery stores, bookstores, travel agencies and more. UPPI anticipates launching this publication in more of its 27 markets. The next issue will be published in October 2002.
