Learn how to get your news published

The Crittenden Press and the Marion Ed-Tech Center are teaming up for their second annual Community Journalist Class at 6 p.m., on Thursday, Dec. 9.

Open to the public, this class is perfect for recording secretaries of community organizations, church groups and corporations. Learn how to write and submit news releases so that your information is published in the newspaper.

Chris Evans, editor and publisher of The Crittenden Press, will be the instructor. He will dissect the newspaper from front to back to help participants better understand where and why the newspaper places articles.
Cost is $10. The tuition for this class is being paid by the newspaper for the first 10 to enroll. There will also be a drawing and a gas gift certificate given to one participant.

For more information, call the newspaper at 965-3191 or Jeremey Wheeler at the Ed-Tech Center at 965-9294.
