How to Submit
Letters Policy
The Beacon welcomes letters to the editor of 400 words or fewer and will print them as promptly as possible as space allows.
However, letters must include a first and last name, address and daytime phone number for verification purposes.
We also reserve the right to edit letters as necessary for brevity, grammar and taste.
Published letters will include the author's name and city of residence.
Send letters to:
The Edmonds Beacon,
806 5th Street,
Mukilteo, WA 98275

Events Calendar/Around Town Policy
Would you like to see your community event listed in the Edmonds Beacon and online at www.edmondsbeacon.com?
Email event notices to: edmondseditor@yourbeacon.net
Qualifying events are generally non-profit and open to the public. Event notices will be included in the online calendar and in the Around Town section on a space available basis.
The deadline for community events is 5 p.m. on the Friday before Wednesday publication.
If your notice is not a community event, but you would still like to see it in the Edmonds Beacon and/or online, contact the Beacon's advertisers at:
Guest View Policy
If your letter to the editor just can't be cut to 400 words, The Beacon also welcomes Guest Views of 600-800 words. We reserve the right to decide if the letter rates special placement.
Send your letter and a head shot of yourself to:
The Edmonds Beacon,
