This video tutorial shows Pikesville Patch readers how to post an announcement—including full press releases—by using the free and easy tools available to all Patch users.

Have you ever sent a press release to Pikesville Patch and wondered when it was going to post?

How about sent a birth announcement or an obituary (which are published free on Patch sites) or school award—only to wonder if it was ever going to be published?

Well, our Patch sites are designed in a way that is easy for users to post their own announcement without having to wait for the editor to post it for you.
