Welcome to Acworth Patch

Hi, we are Patch, a unique online news publication dedicated to community journalism. Patch is your one-stop shop for local news; from breaking news to enterprising stories, investigative reports, event announcements and updates, we are covering it all. We also feature a comprehensive local business directory to help you find whatever it is you are looking for.

Acworth Patch is dedicated to all things Acworth. As the editor, my goal is to make this site a valuable resource for the citizens of Acworth. You'll be seeing me and my team of freelancers covering City Council meetings, police, community activities, high school sports and much more.

We're more than just an online newspaper, though; Patch is a platform for you to engage and connect with others in the community.

Hosting an event? Put it on our calendar. Want to let others know about your kids or students' achievement? Go to the announcement board. Looking for a family-friendly restaurant or ideas for a night out on the town? Browse our directory. Comment on our stories, send us a tweet and follow us on Facebook; we'd love to hear from you.

If you see me or my freelance reporters in town, please don't hesitate to say hi and let us know what's important to you. I look forward to meeting you and sharing your story on Acworth Patch. E-mail me any time at Angela.Chao@Patch.com.
