Has anyone contacted local newspapers about the project?

Has anyone contacted local newspapers about the project? Our local newspaper is usually pretty reponsive to cool projects like this in the schools. I just wanted to find out if anyone else has contacted the papers and if so, how?

I do know that at least one newspaper covered the egg delivery for our E. Brunswick school. I believe it was the Home News (?).

Also, I am working with NJ Fish & Wildlife’s Chief of Information and Education to write a press release around our next and final egg delivery which should be within the next 7 days.

We have a contact with our county/local newspaper. They have both an online postings and the weekly newspaper. We submitted a press release at the beginning of the project and will continue to submit press releases throughout the year on the progress of our trout. We also hope to do a larger article when we release our fish at the end of the year.

Dear Taryn,

Could you forward me a copy of the press release you used? We would like to send a similar release to the local papers in Manahawkin.

Thanks,
Jason

Jason,
Since I have to be the site editor and get to read everything first, I shot Taryn and e-mail to make sure she knows you have a question for her. By the way, TIC got a write-up in the NJ Herald on Thursday 11/16.
