You're invited to a party celebrating the launch of Chapel Hill's local website dedicated to your community and backed by NBC 17.

The party starts at 6:30 p.m. Thursday at Mansion 462, located at 462 Franklin St.

Come eat and socialize with your neighbors and members of the MyNC team. You'll get to meet NBC17's Chapel Hill reporter, Lauren Hills.

At 7 p.m. there will be door prizes and giveaways and a demonstration of the new site.

You'll get a brief overview of how to share your own stories, photos and videos on the community website. Then at 7:15, satisfy your sweet tooth at the cake cutting and stick around for the live jazz, scheduled to start at 7:30 p.m.

The event is open to the public, but if you're able to RSVP, that would be great. Just contact Leigh Brooks at 835-6220 or lbrooks@wncn.com.

We hope you'll come out and socialize with your neighbors and find out more about MyNC. Even if you can only pop in for a few minutes, we'd love to meet you.
