Welcome to the New West Deptford Patch

Hey, Patchers. Welcome to the new West Deptford Patch. As you’ve no doubt noticed, we’ve made some changes—we think, for the better.

First of all, we think the site looks livelier and more like West Deptford. You’ll notice the homepage looks a lot different, with a cover photo that’s instantly recognizable. But that’s not the only thing that’s better about Patch. 

Now our news looks better, is easier to comment on, and is easier to share. Right below the news on the homepage you’ll see blogs, where we can showcase more town voices and where you can get a view of what’s happening beyond the news. Plus, we’ve made it easier to start a blog yourself—any time, about anything.

And speaking of reader voices, the freshest thing you’ll find on the new Patch are our Boards—a totally open place on Patch where you can post Announcements about anything you want—lost cats and dogs, school plays, wedding announcements, or that strange thing you just saw. 

There’s an Opinion Board—because everyone in town has one, so why not put it all in one place? The Buy/Sell/Trade Board is where you can post your garage sale and get rid of the stuff that’s taken over your basement.

And there’s a Board for Business Updates—a dedicated spot for business owners to post news about sales, specials, openings and closings.

Patch is all about our community—living our best lives in town, and making our town better for ourselves and our families. So please, tell us what you think of the new Patch in the Opinion Board, or through the feedback form. 

We can’t wait to hear from you.
