Keeping Woodland Heights Informed

Woodland Heights Newsletter-Q1-2018-1.png

Information is the lifeblood of any organization. Recognizing this fact, the WHCA Director of Communications is tasked with keeping the neighborhood informed by way of a monthly newsletter. The newsletter promotes events in the neighborhood, highlights topics of concern to neighbors, and the activities of the WHCA board. Various WHCA board members provide regular contributions, including; monthly financial updates, security updates, and the Yard-of-the-Month.

Submissions

The newsletter is a resource to everyone in the neighborhood. We welcome articles of all sorts. Organizations within WH are encouraged to submit news of their events or activities. In some cases we may be able to send a neighbor to take photographs or shoot some video to highlight an event summary. 

Submissions can be made to newsletter@woodland-heights.org.

eNewsletters

Roughly eleven months of the year the newsletter is published in electronic form. Close to the end of the month an email is sent to our mailing list of over 1,400 residents. 

Printed Newsletters

In November or December, the newsletter is printed and hand-delivered to the approximately 2,000 homes in the Woodland Heights. This ensures that we are engaging all residents, including those who are not online, to distribute information about key things, such as Lights-in-the-Heights, the Constable Patrol program, and the biannual home tour.

Distribution of the printed newsletters (and occasional other items) is handled by the volunteers in our Block Captain program. Each person on this team agrees to hand-deliver newsletters to specific blocks of particular streets. We are constantly seeking volunteers to help in this effort. If you'd like to volunteer contact the Block Captain Coordinator at blockcaptains@woodland-heights.org.

Sponsorship

We accept a limited number of sponsorships to help offset the cost of producing the newsletter. We give preference to companies that are located in WH and/or serving WH residents. We try to ensure that only one company of each type is presented in each issue.

Art Specs

Sponsored placements are loosely based around a "business-card" sized art (3.5 x 2") up to 3.5" square.

Sponsorship Terms

We ask sponsors to commit to minimum of 6 consecutive placements for $500. That's just $50 per placement. This will naturally involve placements in both email and print editions. Being run entirely by volunteers, we must keep our internal processes simple. We cannot accept selective or one-time placements.

Sponsorship can be conveniently purchased online in our web store.
