Welcome to HalesCornersNOW This Web site combines the efforts of the Journal Sentinel and Community Newspapers newsrooms to bring you the latest news and information about Hales Corners. But mostly, we want this Web site to be about you - the people who live in the community. Right now, this is a "Beta" Web site, which means we're still developing it, seeing what works and what doesn't, getting out into the community to find out what you'd like it to be. We want it to become a gathering place online for you and your neighbors. Even in "Beta," though, we hope we've got plenty to offer you. Here's what: NEWS "CommunityWatch" is an extension of JSOnline's NewsWatch. In it, we'll bring you a quick take on the latest news and information just about Hales Corners - from what's happening in government and the schools, to new businesses and developments coming to town, to the daily buzz of such things as traffic, crime, and big news about your neighbors. We want "CommunityWatch" to be really current, so if you know of some news in Hales Corners, please let us know. In addition, we'll provide an archive of news stories about Hales Corners that have appeared in the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. And we'll post weekly police blotters and home sale prices. THE BASICS Check out the Community Guide for the staples of information about Hales Corners. You'll find names and phone numbers of elected officials, lots of school information, population and demographic trends, links to area organizations and businesses, restaurant reviews, and much more. Frankly, there's so much about a community that residents may want to know that we surely don't have it all. So, again, let us know if you have any ideas. YOUR STORIES Do you have some news that you'd like to share with the rest of the community? Did your youngster just make the honor roll? Did your local organization name its new officers? Your Stories is your spot to tell your neighbors, in your own words, about what's going on with your family, business, school or organization. YOUR PHOTOS This is only the beginning, as we mentioned, of what we hope is a gathering place for the community. Right now, go ahead and post your photos - the ones that show us and everyone else who you are and what you care about. As long as they don't cross the line - and you'll probably know if they do - we'll post them. CALENDARS Garden tours, pancake breakfasts, art exhibits, charity walks and runs, candidate forums - this is the place to find out what events are happening in Hales Corners. Soon, we'll open it up to allow you to post your group's calendar events. BUSINESS LISTINGS AND CLASSIFIEDS Looking for a new job? Need a new car? Checking out new homes? HalesCornersNOW enables you to search the Journal Sentinel and Community Newspapers classified sections online. There's also MilwaukeeMarketplace.com, where you can find local products, business listings, area mall information, special offer coupons and more. And we have an online Yellow Pages as well. *** We know that to make this Web site a place people want to visit regularly, we'll need your help. So, Hales Corners, we want to hear from you.
