Herald is looking for good news

The Herald is expanding its Celebrations announcements to twice a week, Wednesdays and Sundays, so here’s an open invitation to share the joyous moments in your life with your neighbors, family and friends.

We’re looking for your announcements about weddings, adoptions, retirements, engagements, anniversaries and other milestone celebrations. We’re also offering you more space to tell your stories.

Beginning May 12, Celebrations announcements will be added to the local news section on Wednesdays. In addition, one lucky celebrant or couple will be chosen for a new Wednesday feature called “Love Story.” Of course, we’ll continue to have Celebrations in the Sunday paper, too.

To find out how to get your free celebrations announcement in The Herald and how your story can be a Herald “Love Story,” call Christina Harper at 425-339-3432.

Correction

Smoking is allowed in the lounge at Evergreen Lanes and Restaurant, 5111 Claremont Way in Everett. An FYI item published Monday on Page B1 misstated that the entire bowling center is smoke free. The restaurant and bowling lanes are smoke free.
