Patchiversary! Free Coffee At D&R Bagels Today, 8 To 10 A.M.

Solon Patch is 1 year old!

Yep, it was the closing weeks of 2010 when Solon Patch and Northeast Ohio's other 16 community-based news, opinion and information web sites got up and running.

We’re excited to be marking this very important milestone, and we’d like to invite the community to share in our celebration.

We’ve partnered with to bring you a special treat: A free cup of coffee for the first 100 people to stop in from 8 a.m. to 10 a.m. today, Friday, Jan. 27.

Just stop by our Patch table at D & R, pick up a free Patch coffee cup and get your free morning jolt! In the process, you can learn more about Patch and how we can help you become more connected to your community!

There’s other treats in store too: Everyone will have a chance to win Patch prizes. One lucky friend will win a giveaway to one of our most-favorite shops in town.

So bring your friends and stop by to say hello. We’ll be the ones in Patch green, live-tweeting and Facebooking what is sure to be a fun event.
