What Should Patch Put in Our 2012 Virtual Time Capsule?

Leave a comment or upload a photo to share your suggestions for the year's defining moments, stories or pop culture phenomena, Royal Oak! We'll unveil the capsule's contents on New Year's Day before we bury it until next year.

All this week, we'll be taking your suggestions for what should go into our 2012 virtual time capsule.

When you look back, what will make you say, "Oh yeah, that was 2012!" Leave a comment or upload a photo to tell us what you think were the defining moments, stories or pop culture phenomena of the year. We'll pick our favorites and compile them in a virtual time capsule that will be revealed Tuesday, Jan. 1.

For example, who could forget that 2012 was the year Royal Oak passed a millage increase or the substation fire that knocked out power to thousands in Royal Oak?

After New Year's Day, we'll bury the time capsule until the next year, when we'll dig it up to reflect and ring in 2014!
