Hi, I'm Stephanie Price, local editor for Algonquin-Lake in the Hills Patch, and I want to welcome you to the new Patch! Patch Editor Amie Schaenzer, now working for multiple Patch sites including Algonquin-Lake in the Hills, welcomes you, too.
We've upgraded our look, and added a few more options to better serve you. The new page is easier to post comments on, and easier to share.
Below the news on the homepage you will see the Local Voice Blogs where Algonquin-Lake in the Hills blogs will continue to showcase articles, opinions, information and the like from readers just like you living in the Algonquin-Lake in the Hills community.
We've made it easier for you to start a blog, too.
Speaking of reader voices, the freshest thing you’ll find on the upgraded Patch is the "Boards."
The Boards are a totally open place on Patch where you can post announcements about anything you want - lost dog, school plays, wedding announcements, or a special event your group or organization is hosting.
There’s an Opinion Board - because everyone in town has one, so why not put it all in one place?
The Buy/ Sell/ Trade Board is where you can post your garage sale notice, or sell that old tandem bike taking up space in your garage. There's also a board for business updates, a dedicated spot for business owners to post news about sales, specials, openings and closings.
Patch is all about our community - living our best lives in our towns, and making our community better for ourselves and our families. So please, tell us what you think of the new Patch in the Opinion Board, or through the feedback form.
