Announcement Writing Guide:

Before you begin, it also helps to familiarize yourself with the format for announcements appearing in our newspaper at eagletribune.com. While every announcement is unique, here are some basic guidelines to follow:

· The introduction should include the individual's full name.

· Next, provide all relevant biographical information, such as date and place of birth, parents, education and employment, memberships and affiliations, as well as any further information regarding residency or relocation.

· Remember that accuracy is of utmost importance. Please be sure that dates are accurate, and names, schools and cities are spelled correctly.
