The CBLDF sent out a release for an event last(?) week, listed the building and cross-streets...but forgot to mention it was in New York City. (Also, if the city+state aren't clear, list the country. Just in case someone has it in their head that, say, New South Wales is in the UK instead of Australia.) Following up on Brigid’s comment, be sure you include the city!

And one more thing... If you're announcing an event in a city with an ambiguous name, please give a state—i.e. Portland. On the internet, no one knows what state you're in. Agreed with all the above!
