How to get on these lists in Eureka

Three steps, once. After that the local news comes to you instead of you going to find it.

  1. Subscribe at the source

    Use your FamilyHQ forwarding address, or set a rule in your own inbox that auto-forwards anything from these Eureka senders. Either way you stop relying on catching them by eye.

  3. Read one digest instead of ten newsletters

    FamilyHQ pulls the dates, deadlines, and registration windows out of what arrives and puts them in one weekly view alongside your school, camp, and team email.
