You can submit a story to our printed newspapers by using the form below. Your story is subject to our editorial guidelines. We highly recommend you include a photo and authors bio along with your story. We receive many submissions every day and can't let you know if or when your story will run.
How to get your story, press release or article in Community Newspapers
- Deadlines: Stories should be submitted at least three weeks ahead of an event, earlier if possible. After event stories/photos should be received by us within a week, if not sooner.
- Photos: Prints should be scanned at 100 percent with at least 300 dpi resolution. Photos taken with digital cameras should be of high resolution (640x480 is not adequate, recommend at least 1,600 X 1,200). Send in hi-res jpeg format. Do not reduce file size for email.
Follow-up with a call within a day or two of sending release. Don’t wait a week or more to see if we received the story. - Trouble?: If you're having troubles submitting your story via this form, you can send your story via email to cneditor@gate.net - Do not send by fax or regular mail. Email the story as an attachment — MS Word preferred (we can translate from either Mac or PC platforms) or as part of email. You can attach photo files as well. Do not place photos in word documents. Be sure cutlines (captions) are included.
