Clipper Editor's Note | Want to publicize your event? Put it in our calendar

I periodically feel the need to remind the public how to get announcements in the Clipper.

It's amazing how many hundreds of emails, websites, media releases, phone calls and other sources I have to scrounge through to find some of the events happening in our city that organizers could be contributing in one, centralized, easy-to-submit location.

If you are planning a fundraiser, concert, garden tour, workshop, support group – just about any noncommercial event – you can submit the details at www.pilotonline.com/events.

By doing so, your event will get published in both our online and print calendars. It's a one-step process, and it's completely free!

While all the events in our calendar run as space permits, I can't remember the last time I had to cut something, so your event's almost assured to get publicity.

The added benefit of submitting your event online to our calendar is that I will see it almost immediately, which will often prompt me to assign a story to preview or cover the event. It's a win-win-win – for the submitter, the Clipper and the reader!

Some groups, individuals and organizations routinely submit their events in this fashion, and I appreciate their efforts.

Readers consistently tell me they like being able to find events in a centralized location, and often save the calendar from week to week so they can refer to it.

Don't let your event slip through the cracks. Visit www.pilotonline.com/events and enter it today.

And keep sending me your story ideas. If it's something you can't wait to tell your best friend about, it's probably a good story.
