Event Promotion Procedures
Publicize Your Program!
Are you planning a program, event, or activity at the Fellowship? Do you know how to get the word out to publicize it?
Here's what you should do:
To request a room
To get an item in the monthly newsletter
To get an item in the bimonthly Lifespan Learning brochure
To get an item in What's Happening in the Sunday bulletin
To have an announcement made verbally on Sunday morning
To get an item posted on the MUF website
To request a room: Fill out a room reservation form and submit it to MUF Administrator Maggie Chilton at office@muuf.org or by placing a hard copy in her mailbox at the Fellowship. The form is available in the Members Only section of the Fellowship's website at www.muuf.org or on paper in the copier room at MUF. No program should be publicized until you have confirmed the room reservation first.
To get an item in the monthly newsletter: Submit it to Pat Baxter at melodylingers@verizon.net by the 15th of the month for the following month's edition (e.g., by February 15 for the March newsletter).
To get an item in the bimonthly Lifespan Learning brochure: Submit it to Danelle Simonelli at dksimonelli@hotmail.com. The deadline is also the 15th of the month, but for the following two months (e.g., by February 15 for the March-April brochure), so please think ahead.
To get an item in What's Happening in the Sunday bulletin: Submit it to Maggie Chilton at office@muuf.org by 5:00 p.m. on Wednesday for the following Sunday (e.g., by February 3 for the February 7 bulletin). Note that What's Happening blurbs should be as brief as possible -- don't submit the same long description as you would for the newsletter, but edit it down to the bare bones.
To have an announcement made verbally on Sunday morning: Submit it to Maggie Chilton at office@muuf.org by 5:00 p.m. on Wednesday for the following Sunday. We try to limit announcements to the most urgent items only, so please use this method sparingly.
To get an item posted on the MUF website: Normally our webmaster transfers information from the newsletter, brochure, and What's Happening onto the website. To add something not in those publications or to make a change, submit it to Hazel Bell at webmaster@muuf.org.
Please keep this reference list handy and mark the deadlines on your calendar. We want to publicize all MUF programs, but can only do so if you tell us about them!
