3 Easy Ways To Get Your Info Posted On Patch

Would you like to post events, announcements and blogs to Lutz Patch? Keep this article handy each time there is something you'd like to share with our community.

To post events to the site for free: navigate to the Events page and click “Add an Event” on the right side of the page. Tell us all the details about your upcoming event, then click “post my event” at the bottom of the page.

That puts the event directly on our calendar. The end result is the same as if a Patch staffer had posted it for you.

The only difference is, when you post it, it goes up right away. If you send it to us, you might have to wait until we're done reporting on the school board meeting, photographing an event, meeting with community members or something else that we Patchers are always doing.

To post announcements to the site for free: simply click the Announcement option under the news tab on the homepage (or, click right here). On the right side of the screen you’ll see the button “Add an Announcement.” This will you take you to Patch’s new announcement form. Once there, get your brag on and tell the community all about your child's sports league win or your civic club’s new members.

You also can use announcements to put a call out for volunteers, publicize an upcoming event, announce sports league tryouts and more. If you need to get the word out, this is the quickest way to do it!

When you’re ready, click “publish my announcement” and it will go live to the site immediately.

For extra visibility, add a photo. If you email us the link, we can help give you even more exposure.

To blog: Simply click the "start a blog" button on our homepage, click "post on Patch," and fill out the required fields. When done, hit "save and preview" and then submit it to us. If you run into any issues, just email sherri.lonon@patch.com and she'll help you out.
