The Title is your headline to get readers’ attention. Include your organization's name and a brief reference to your subject. Check out some examples already online. Please AVOID ALL CAPITAL LETTERS --- it makes your Title harder to read.

 

If the submission form includes Address fields, and you use them, a "Google Map" link will display online giving folks directions to the location.

 

Include in the Text area Who, What, Where, When and Why. Try to briefly cover each of these in the first paragraph. Put relevant details in additional paragraphs. Explain how to get more information; put a phone number in the Text area or include your website and email address in the appropriate fields. It's strongly suggested that you write your announcement using Microsoft Word, check your spelling & grammar and then copy & paste it your announcement into the Text field. Note that special fonts, colors, formats and characters will not display --- this is a text-only field. Please AVOID ALL CAPITAL LETTERS --- they make it seem like you're SHOUTING and it's harder to read your announcement.
