Calling for contributors
While checking out the Elkton blog http://someonenoticed.wordpress.com/, I took the opportunity to check out a speech by Joe Albero, the publisher of the Salisbury News, "the number one rated political blog in Maryland". http://sbynews.blogspot.com/2009/05/todays-speech-at-executive-chamber-of.html. His blog , http://sbynews.blogspot.com/ (and others) shows what a blog can be and what it can accomplish. Local news that is informative, and knowledgeable opinions from the community, is what each community must have to allow residents to remain informed of what is going on in Chesapeake City.The trend of less local news published in the local paper with very little, if any, real in-depth news is becoming more obvious every day......an alternative news source is needed.To fill this empty space, I am requesting contributors to this blog. It can be a news item or an opinion piece. This blog needs to be more than one person's crying in the wind, it needs you to become a part of the reporting of what is going on in Chesapeake City.I will need a name to allow postings(real or made-up but I will need to know who are are before I publish something. See the Salisbury News blog, contributors list, to see examples).Please help this blog grow into something the whole town can be proud of..
