Great Community Resource: Patch

[MeLisa Turcott Strongheart]

I have really enjoyed using the relative new website, and what I believe is a great community resource found at :  Mercer Island Patch

What is Patch?

Simply put, Patch is a new way to find out about, and participate in, what’s going on near you.

We’re a community-specific news and information platform dedicated to providing comprehensive and trusted local coverage for individual towns and communities.

We want to make your life better by giving you quick access to the information that’s most relevant to you. Patch makes it easy to:

• Keep up with news and events
