Jim Stewart Published the Banner Alone, But We Could Use More Volunteers

The Whitewater Banner has always been a volunteer effort, and while our small volunteer team really enjoys what we do, we could use a little more help. Could one of the following roles be of interest to you? You’d need to have access to the Internet/email, but advanced technical skills aren’t required.

  • Content editor: Format material such as press releases into our WordPress software. Much of the time it’s copy/paste of text plus deciding what will work as an image.
  • Ad rep: Respond to inquiries about advertising. Actively seeking new advertisers would also be appreciated. Insert ads into our software and manage their ongoing placement.
  • School Board reporter:  Watch School Board meetings either in person or virtually and report objectively on information presented and decisions made. It isn’t necessary to watch the entire meeting, or even every meeting, depending upon what’s on the agenda.
  • Common Council reporter: Watch Common Council meetings either in person or virtually and report objectively on information presented and decisions made. It isn’t necessary to watch the entire meeting, or even every meeting, depending upon what’s on the agenda.
  • Feature writer:  This individual could have quite a bit of freedom in discovering subjects that would be of interest to our readers, doing research/interviews, and writing articles. Our policy does not allow for covering political matters, other than elections, and we generally avoid controversial issues.

If you have a potential interest in any of these areas, please email us at whitewaterbanner@gmail.com.
