 Hispanic Yellow Pages Network to Distribute 21st Edition for District of Columbia and Maryland Area Washington DC, (October 12th, 2006) – HYP Network’s VEGA Directorio en Español launched the 21st edition for the Washington DC/MD area. The directory's cover features a reproduction of the winning entry of the "Arte de America Hispana Contest" by local artist Angela Lubinecky. This contest is held every year and promotes and celebrates the rich and diverse Hispanic culture that is an important part of the community in the Washington DC/Maryland area. Today over 700,000 Hispanics live and work in counties that comprise the area served by VEGA Directorio en Español. HYP Network's goal is to continue the record established over the last twenty one years of producing the highest quality directories with valuable information for its users while providing businesses with an efficient, cost effective, and highly targeted way to reach one of the fastest growing groups of consumers when they are looking for products and services. Over the next 30 to 60 days copies of VEGA Directorio en Español will be distributed door-to-door in areas with a high number of Hispanic households. In addition the directory will be made available in racks located in a number of high traffic locations frequented by Hispanics.
