Announce Your Engagement, Wedding, New Baby on Patch

Unlike a traditional newspaper, posting an exciting announcement on Patch doesn't cost a dime, and anybody can do it. Whether your child received a scholarship or you just got married, Patch readers want to hear about it.

Between all the local weddings, engagements, births and so much more, there's just too much news for Caledonia Patch to keep up with. However, that's where you come in.

It's called Patch's Announcements section, and posting one is totally free and really easy. Announcements are like user-submitted articles on Patch with everything from a space to include photos to the ability to link to other websites.
