Getting noticed is easy

When you know what to do, getting publicity for your event is easy. Let The Times show you how.

Are you in charge of publicity for your non-profit organization? Is your club planning an event for July, but you are worried it might get lost in the summer crush? Did you miss a club meeting only to discover you were named press secretary? Does your group do wonderful things but you don't know how to promote it?

Join us for a “Getting Noticed” seminar on Thursday, May 19, at 7 pm, here at The Times office on Beach Road in Vineyard Haven.

Anna Marie D'Addarie from The Times Calendar section will help you with everything you need to know to get your event noticed. The hands-on seminar will include: how to write a press release, what NOT to do, deadlines, and a “You be the editor” game (with prizes) to test what you have learned.

Take advantage of this opportunity and get noticed. You owe it to your organization and to our community. We want to know what's going on.


Rhodie's blooming


Join the folks at Polly Hill Arboretum for a rhododendron and azaleas guided walk with the experts Tim Boland, Don Brown, and Jeanie Gillis. The knowledgeable trio will answer your questions and fill you in on these blooming beauties.

To register or for more information, call 508-693-9426. The cost is $36 or $30 for arboretum members and the program runs from 9 am to noon this Saturday.


Museum and garden trip

The Tisbury Travel Club is planning a trip to the Heritage Museum and Gardens in Sandwich on Wednesday, June 1. The Heritage is a premier showcase that celebrates the American spirit with exhibits of antique automobiles, a 1912 hand-carved carousel, Revolutionary and Civil War memorabilia, folk art and more than 1,000 varieties of trees, shrubs and flowers. The famous Dexter rhododendrons should be in bloom.

An added special exhibit, on loan from the Mystic Seaport Museum, features “Sea Dogs: Great Tales of the Sea.”

The trip cost $20 and includes the bus and admission. Call 508-696-4205 and reserve your place for this wonderful day off the Island.
