Cities and towns have finalized their business for 2012, many factories and companies are either on shut down or sparsely populated now until after the first of the year. In short, this is a slow news time for media so we’re asking for our readers help in submitting some news.

Our Santa photos were such a big hit – see the slideshow of all of the entries we received by clicking HERE – we’d like to invite you to help us with yet another project.

Because we have the capabilities to provide video, we are welcoming not only your holiday photos, but also your submissions of a favorite holiday home video clip. The surprise of a child on Christmas morning, a joyous announcement made during the holidays, or just a short clip of a memorable moment – we want you to share your videos.

Photos will also be accepted. Email videos and/or photos to be considered for publication to: [email protected]. Please note videos may be edited and will be accepted through Friday.
