Have you heard of a website called www.yourhub.com? It's a community based news sharing website that anyone can submit information to. Not only can you submit news and photos, but you can add events to a calendar and start your own blog.
For example, if you would like to report on a club activity taking place in Castle Rock, you can go to www.yourhub.com/castlerock and post just in that community. In fact, you can post to several east slope hubs, from Arvada to Wheatridge, via a drop-down box on the left side of the page. There are also several categories in which to place your information ranging from education to fundraising and more.
I've posted several 4-H press releases on all Douglas County community hubs with great success. I can see how many "hits" each story received (number of people who viewed the story) and which communities read 4-H articles the most.
Yourhub staff have often added 4-H stories to the print section that comes out in the Thursday editions of the Rocky Mountain News and the Denver Post. We're getting lots of visibility for Douglas County 4-H.
I encourage all of you to consider utilizing this website to promote our fantastic 4-H program here in Douglas County.
Your blog host, Melody
