For sites specifically geared toward this community. Submitting a site relevant to another locality may significantly delay the site from being listed in the directory.

• Make sure the site title matches the name of the organization or entity.
• In the site description, stick to the facts and avoid hype or promotional language.
• This is a Regional category, so the location should be readily apparent on the site. The service area should also be apparent when applicable.
• Avoid Excessive Capitalization.
• Describe the site features as well as the subject of the site.

Thank you for your cooperation.
