General Guidelines for Media Outlet Submissions (not social media\/kijiji\/lokol etc.) <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n
    \n
  1. Your submission to a media outlet should always be as short as possible, while including all necessary information. Most places recommend between 1 and 4 sentences. Be sure to include:\n
      \n
    1. Name of Event<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    2. Date of Event<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    3. Location of Event<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    4. Summary of Event (what can attendees expect?)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    5. Cost (if applicable)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    6. Where readers\/listeners can learn more (may be a phone number, email, social media account etc.)\n
        \n
      1. Example: A fundraiser for Camp Gencheff will be held at the camp on June 18, 1-4 p.m. \u2013 a yard sale and accepting refundable recyclables, barbecue sales and live music, 2-3 p.m. It will raise funds for a new beach wheelchair.

      2. Submit your event as early as possible. The media outlet will run it for as long as possible before the date of the event.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
