Calendar Events (Free)

Enter your events at IthaCalendar.com. This same calendar is the one used in the Star, as well as Wikatha.com, so entering it once will make your event show up in all these places.

Tell about upcoming events
Include a date, time and place
May announce times, places, ticket prices, etc. within reason
Must be local, in or near Tompkins County

Note: Please enter calendar events yourself. Once entered there will be a delay until a moderator can approve the listing to go live, usually within a day or two.

Entering your events in this way gets them seen. This is a free, moderated service. You must enter your own events. We do not have staff to enter events for you -- no exceptions.

Important Information

Deadlines The deadline for each Friday issue is Wednesday midnight for columns, and Thursday noon for sports stories. Exceptions may be made for late breaking news and sports at the editor's discretion.

Press Releases Press releases in the form of a news story may be used in the content pages with attribution to the submitter or their organization. Always assume we want pictures, especially with arts (including theater) releases. Don't say 'Photos available' -- just send them to us please.

Bylines: We credit the sender as the author unless requested not to. Also, if you send a story that mentions you or quotes yourself we credit 'Staff' in the byline unless otherwise requested.

Announcements: Press releases that are announcements will not be used -- please enter them directly in our Events Calendar if appropriate.

Materials are accepted or rejected at the sole discretion of the Lansing Star staff. Occasional exceptions to these policies do not imply a change of policy. Please do not ask for exceptions.

Note: The Star has a cadre of volunteer writers of all ages who are interested in reporting stories or writing columns. If you are interested in writing a regular column please contact us .
