Tips on writing a news release

By Times staff reports

© St. Petersburg Times, published February 22, 2001


The Citrus Times makes every effort to publicize upcoming events, club news, class news, etc. However we reserve the right to disregard items that are incomplete, late or inappropriate.

Listings should include the group's name, time, and street and city location of the meeting or event, rain dates if needed, phone number for public contact and a media contact number. If this is a fundraiser for a specific cause, include that information.

Deadlines are at least 10 business days ahead of the event or the deadline for registering. This applies to Bulletin Board, Top of the Class, Steppin' Out, Nature Notes and Political Scene. Items for the Religion page on Saturday or the Monday Business Briefs must be received by the Inverness office no later than noon of the Tuesday prior to that Saturday or Monday.

Items for the Citrus Calendar, which runs on the last Sunday of the month, must reach the Inverness office no later than 5 p.m. the second Friday of the month prior to the month of the meeting. For instance, items for the March listings must reach the office no later than 5 p.m. Feb. 9.

For information, call 860-7319.
