Good things are free
There isn’t too much in life that’s free.
And even some things that claim they’re free aren’t really after looking at the details.
But I have something to offer you that is completely free.
Many of our lifestyle announcements are free to place in the paper. This includes births, youth birthdays, weddings, engagements and milestone anniversaries.
Many newspapers don’t do this anymore. They charge for all of these. I’ve heard many of you complain about how much it costs to put wedding and engagement announcements in the paper.
However, it’s free to the residents of our area.
All you have to do is come in our office, fill out a form and leave a picture for us to use. It’s that simple.
If you cannot come by our office during business hours, you can email them at any time. Send them to news@hartselleenquirer.com. Please make sure you attach your picture and writeup along with including your name and phone number so we can contact you if there’s a question.
If you don’t want to write the announcement yourself, you can still fill out the form on www.hartselleenquirer.com and submit it that way.
We also do not charge for obituaries. Just ask the funeral home to send the announcement to us so we can include it in our obituary section.
Also, make sure that you send us your events, including all of your fall events at your churches. If you’re doing a Fifth Quarter, trunk-or-treat, fall festival or some other kind of fall celebration, please let us know.
And again, it’s free for any community event.
