Share What You Love on Hellertown Patch!

We're looking for Saucon Valley residents, volunteers and business owners to blog on Patch. Blogging on Patch is free, easy, and a great way to get the word out fast!

Have you ever thought about blogging and thought, "nah." Is it because you feel you don't have anything to say? You probably do, but you just don't know it!

Traditional blogging involves the sharing of strong opinions, but on Patch you don't have to have an opinion to blog (although having one doesn't hurt either).

For example, if you're a member of a local civic group or organization you can blog about your group's upcoming activities, share photos, etc. You can even put out a call for volunteers or new members.
