New Feature Coming To Hoboken Patch

Do you ever wonder what people are buzzing about in Hoboken? Well, so do we. 

Hoboken Patch is kicking off a new feature called "About Town," a column that will be updated throughout the day, every weekday, starting Tuesday, September 7. Hoboken is one of 20 Patch sites that will be publishing the new column.

"About Town" is supposed to be a light-hearted update about general news in town. It is also complementary to the hard news stories you'll find on Hoboken Patch. It's a place to put all those tidbits that are so interesting but don't necessarily merit a full news story. 

"About Town" will focus on specific facts in Hoboken that characterize our town. There'll be facts about important Hobokenites, little decisions from the public meetings in town, or local facts that may come in handy. 

But, this is not a one way street. In order to make this column a success, Hoboken Patch needs you. This column is a chance for the community to get more involved in this web site.

Even if you're not already writing for us as a contributor, you can send in your tips, tidbits, announcements, achievements and photos for "About Town" to Hoboken Patch Editor Claire Moses at clairem@patch.com. 

Check back next Tuesday for the first "About Town" entries and we hope you will come back throughout the day, every day.
