Please include all the basic information - who, what, why, when, and where, plus the name and phone number of a contact person in case we need more information or would like to arrange an interview. Usually about two weeks before an event is plenty of time, and feel free to call and confirm that your press release or announcement was received. Depending on the event, it may be used as a news story, on our community calendar of public service announcements, or both. |
