The Oakland Township Sentinel is sent to about 470 email addresses. Also 20 direct subscribers went to our website and arranged to get it (also free) as soon as a post is made. We had 17,028 registered voters in Oakland Township at the time of the November 2024 election. So we reach, at most, about 3% of voters.

If you can help spread the word among your friends and neighbors, it would be appreciated.

It’s easiest for us if they to the website and arrange to subscribe. Our new Outlook in Word 365 “chokes” on 470 emails at once so we divided it up into 13 separate distributions to get it out. We can send two of these at once. That is time consuming, and even with that we can’t feed them too fast. We have to wait until the first batch of about 80 has successfully gone out before sending the next.

If anyone can recommend a good free service for sending mass emails, please contact me. There is lots on-line, but a recommendation would be golden.
