Video: An Introduction to Upper Macungie Patch

Upper Macungie Patch launched Dec. 14, 2010 and even though we've been thoroughly covering local news for two months, we're probably still a little unfamiliar to some local residents.

But, we're getting more proactive by the day and this is the next step. This is the official Upper Macungie Patch "Welcome Video," that was delayed for several reasons, the majority of them winter weather-related.

It's my opportunity to introduce myself as Upper Macungie Patch's Local Editor and explain what Patch is about, why we're here and about our mission to serve the community's local news and information needs.

Patch sends its thanks to the Upper Macungie Supervisors, who were gracious enough to allow taping and production to take place in the township meeting room.

If you have any questions, comments or suggestions concerning Upper Macungie Patch, I invite you to contact me directly at thomas.demartini@patch.com.

I'm sure I'll see you around town. Now, you'll recognize me when I show up at government meetings, sports contests and other local events.
