<strong>News</strong> Releases<br />
A news release should answer the questions of Who, What, When, Where, Why and How. Make sure to include locations, dates and times of an<br />
event, and key contact information, including phone numbers, emails, websites and/or social media handles. A news release should be written as<br />
concisely and precisely as possible and be submitted at least 10 days before the event.<br />
Posting to the Community Calendar<br />
Go to news-press.com/submitevent to post a community event. Fill in all the red checked fields, starting with the event title. Under venue,<br />
enter where the event will be held. You can select from an existing database of venues or add a new one. Make sure to click on the circle to the<br />
left of the venue.<br />
Add the time and day. You can also click on a box to indicate that it is a recurring event.<br />
Under the date, make sure to fill out the online description with a brief explanation of the event. Please use sentence case; avoid “ALL CAPS.”<br />
Other required fields are: Categories, Public Phone number and Price. Write “Free” if there is no charge for the event.<br />
You have the option to add information about parking, sponsors, targeted age groups, any performers and websites.<br />
When you are finished, click on the “Add” button at the bottom of the page. You will be asked to enter a code or sentence; this is to avoid spam<br />
from entering the system.<br />
If any required field was not filled out, a note in a red box will tell you what you missed. You will receive a note in green saying “Event Saved”<br />
once the event is submitted successfully. Please allow up to two business days for us to review your event for approval.<br />
