Welcome to Simpsonville Patch!

We're live!

We are pleased to announce the live launch of Simpsonville Patch, the area's newest and most indispensable source of local news, events, and conversation.

I'm Hal Millard, the editor of Simpsonville Patch, and I'd like to welcome you to your community news Web site.

Yes, this site is your's. While you can count on us to bring you the latest news and events, the beauty of Patch is the opportunity for our users to become directly involved in the site.

In addition to merely being able to comment directly on stories, with Patch, you can create your own blog, you can post announcements of all kinds, you can share news, and photos, and even video. This is truly an interactive site, and we hope that you will take advantage of all that Patch has to offer.

We're still building the site, but we encourage you to browse through it and become familiar with all the site has to offer.

While you're at it, make sure to sign up for our free, daily email newsletter — so you'll never miss a headline.

In addition, like us and follow us on Facebook, as well as follow us on Twitter. 

And, finally, be sure to tell your friends, family, and neighbors about Simpsonville Patch as we seek to grow.

Thanks again and, again, welcome!

If you ever want to share your news tips, ideas, comments, etc., please feel free to contact me at any time at hal.millard@patch.com.
