Post Free Graduation Announcements on Patch

Know a great graduate?

It's graduation season, and whether your preschooler is moving on to the big K, you're celebrating a high school graduation, or your college senior is heading out into the real world, you can brag about it on Hermosa Beach Patch.

First, make sure you're a registered user of Patch. If you aren't, click on "Join" in the top toolbar of the homepage. Enter your information, or opt to connect with Facebook.

Once you're logged in, scroll to the "Announcements" tab at the top of any page and click "Announce Something" in the drop down menu.

In the announcement template, fill out the fields, and make sure you choose "graduation" as the category. When you're finished, you can add photos and even a video of your graduate.

Once the information is filled in, scroll to the bottom and select "Post my announcement." The announcement will appear in our announcements section and most of the time in the daily email newsletter.

Make sure you sign up for the newsletter if you haven't yet—just select the green button that says "Patch Newsletter" in the upper right side of the homepage. 

Send the link to your friends and family so they can share your proud moment with you. At the end of each week, we'll do a roundup of graduation announcements and post it on the front page.

Editor's Note: Treat our announcements section like a community bulletin board. Hermosa Beach Patch is happy to help you find your lost dog, promote your garage sale and more.
