Giving You the Lowdown on Closings & Cancellations
Email [email protected] to share your school, community event, or workplace closure or cancellation details
Closures and Cancellations in Starved Rock Due to Current Circumstances
Got a school, community event, or major employer closing or cancellation you want everyone to know about? Shoot an email to [email protected]! Here's a sneak peek at the kind of information they'll need:
- The Basics: Fill them in on the when, where, and why. Give them the date, time, location, and reason for the closure or cancellation.
- Contact Info: Don't forget to include your name, phone number, and email address. It's essential to provide contact information so they can reach out for more details if needed.
- Supporting Materials: If you have photos, flyers, or official documents to back up your submission, feel free to attach them to your email.
Following standard practices, it's always best to submit your announcements at least 2–4 weeks in advance for event coverage. However, if it's an urgent update like a closure or cancellation, submit it as soon as possible.
Double-check all information you provide is accurate, especially if you're sharing news about permits or official approvals (if applicable). For cancellations like school closures or employer shutdowns, make sure to include the reason for the closure and the expected duration. Provide any impact information, such as remote work instructions or rescheduled dates.
If [email protected] has specific guidelines or forms, be sure to check their website or reply to their automated response (if any) for formatting requirements. If their process isn't clear from search results or their website, include all necessary details in your initial email.
Want to catch their attention? Instead of a generic subject line, try something like:
There ya have it! When you've got a closing or cancellation to share, drop [email protected] a line, and spread the word. Good luck!
- In an email to [email protected], submit details about the major employer cancellation or school closure, including the date, reason, and location, along with your contact information and any supporting materials.
