The Beverly Citizen in Massachusetts carries a huge front page to community events for readers to take their photos with it.

WHAT THEY DID: The Beverly Citizen carried on a tradition of the North Unit in New England of carrying a giant front page to an event -- in this case the Beverly Homecoming Festival. They use a story about the event, with the headline: "I made the front page at Beverly Homecoming." People then stand behind the page and have a picture taken with them appearing to be on the front page. The photos then appeared on a full page in the paper after the event. This is a great way to promote the paper and feature some smiling faces in your paper afterward.

TAKEAWAY: This is a great idea you can try the next time you're at an event. Reports from New England are that people love it. And there's nothing wrong with having some fun with your community.

If you have any other fun ideas, be sure to send them to me so I can feature them on GHnewsroom. Also, send your best work to appear in the Best of the Day.
