Our Town Texas is News 10’s gift to the communities in Central Texas it serves. The gift is television exposure for the positive stories, history and businesses that comprise each our town. News 10 will be telling the stories of the town’s history, unique things and places that make it a special place to live. Local businesses will have the opportunity to thank residents for their patronage and tell Central Texas about their business. Promotion announcements and station id’s will remind viewers Our Town is a special place in which to live and work. Central Texas’ most watched news station will make sure its viewers are aware of Our Town during this special television project. Another part of the gift is ourtowntexas.com, a web site created and maintained by News 10 for each of the our town communities. Our Town Texas web sites will continue to be promoted by News 10 on television and on the web. The Our Town web sites will have several News 10 features, Doppler radar, daily forecasts, important news and sports stories generated by News 10 but it is designed to have content provided by the people of the community. Participate in the Conversation One of the main objectives of Our Town Texas is to make sure that everyone who lives in Our Town feels like it is your Web site. We need your help to cover the community. Breaking News If you have breaking news photos of a fire or traffic crash, send them to us ASAP Call us at 254.776.3242 Submit your news via email Community Calendar Events Submit your community events See Full Calendar We Want Your Photos & Videos We want the shots of your grandma visiting, your daughter celebrating her second birthday, photos from the prom or the middle school play, and especially that shot of the fish that didn't get away. If you send us photos, they don't have to be the sort of shots you see in fancy magazines. If you've got a cool shot of some of our crazy weather or something you even took on your camera phone, we want it! And your photos will have a chance of being seen on television, as well as on our Web channel. The more information you include in the descriptive text accompanying your photo, the better the chance your photo may be used elsewhere online or on television. Try to use the full name of each person in the photo, as well as a description of where you are, what you are doing and when the photo was taken. Add Your Comment Look for the comments icon in a story to post your comment about that story. React to the story in your own words and share your thoughts with others. Let it out! If you’ve been looking for the chance to let people know how you feel about the town’s new proposal, give ‘em your two cents worth. Click Here |
