NEED YOUR INPUT -
ALUMNI IN THE NEWS ARTICLES.
We
hope you like this new feature in our website. We need your
input!
The requirements are simple. Send us ( via e-mail, fax or
letter ) and we'll consider it for inclusion on our website. We do
have some restrictions / considerations:
(1)
We must have approval of the alumni
involved.
(2)
We can not publish articles on students currently enrolled in
Haddonfield
schools.
(3)
Our focus is on our alumni and their families.
(4)
Of course, we will consider the
appropriateness, content, timeliness and
quality of the printed materials and pictures.
Our current "Alumni in the News" article is on:
Again, we need your help. If you are aware of any news worthy
items on our alumni, please send it in. We will get their approval.
Remember -- it doesn't have to be "earth shattering" news, just
something your fellow alumni would be interested in. As a side note,
your webmaster ( Tom Baird ) apologizes for publishing an article on
himself but we do need news articles and he wanted to be the "straw
man" for others to follow. As the butt of many jokes, he welcomes
your comments via e-mail, fax, telephone or mail.
