PUBLICITY
Pam Girton representing the Xenia Gazette, Fairborn Herald,
and the Beavercreek News came to a Roundtable and talked about
getting Scouting articles in the newspaper. She said it was easy
and here is a summary of what she told us. With their limited
resources they cannot cover most Scout events.
That is where we can help to get our Scouting activities in
print. First, it would be helpful to run it past the ScoutMaster
or Committee Chair for approval
prior to submission to the paper. (A) Submissions
should be current. (B) If an article and or pictures are submitted
they assume that they have permission
from everyone shown or listed to publish it in the paper. (C)
Brief copy
is best more likely to get published and more likely to get read.
(D) Action photos are best. Photos
with everyone in a line saying cheese aren't as interesting.
They would like digital photos sent as a jpg file. Pictures can
be submitted but it would be better to have them scanned. (E)
They run Macintosh and cannot read
stuff from the PC world so you should only send text in email
text and jpg files. It would be best to write, edit, spell check,
etc. in a word processing program and then cut and paste this
into the email. Email this information to pgirton@xeniagazette.com.
(F) Finally, let the rest of the Troop know so we can look for
the article. -Irv Martin

or 800-321-5692. This is a daily devotional revised from WWII
by an eagle project and intended for our service men and women,
but also scouts and generally. It is sponsored by the United
Methodist Men Foundation. I find it a very good daily devotional.
It is intended for an interdenominational Christian audience
but does have a few pages devoted to other world religions as
well.
- USScouts.org has some very good resources for Chaplain's
