City of Ocean Springs Launches City E-Newsletter

Ocean Springs, Ms – The City of Ocean Springs e-newsletter will soon launch following its approval at Tuesday night’s Mayor and Board of Aldermen meeting.  The monthly newsletter Discover will feature news from city departments as well as a calendar of events, and featured articles related to pertinent city news.

The city launched a newsletter in 2008 that was delivered to homes through the postal service.  The e-newsletter will save the city thousands of dollars in postal fees.

The city will contract with Constant Contact, a permission-based email company.  To get a copy of the e-newsletter, individuals must provide a name and email address for subscription.  To do so, visit the city’s web site, www.oceansprings-ms.gov.  Look for the spotlight link and the email update link on the home page.  Once a subscribers’ list is established, distribution of the e-newsletter will begin.  Constant Contract has a zero tolerance against SPAM and does not use provided email lists.  The only way to subscribe to Discover e-newsletter is through the city’s web site.
