How to be a torch reporter
00:01, 18 June 2012
It's a prelude to the biggest sporting spectacle in the world – and KM Group wants you to be part of the Olympic flame's journey through Kent.
The torch relay comes to the county next month, when the flame will spend four days in the county – longer than anywhere else in the UK.
As part of the celebrations and a way of remembering this historic event, we're looking for a team of four torch reporters - one for each day of the relay- to add their experiences to an unique, interactive map of the county.
We'll be asking you to send in your pictures, videos and audio clips and tweet short updates as the flame passes through your community between July 17 and July 20.
You could also be interviewed by one of our multimedia reporters to help relay the excitement of the torch's journey through Kent to thousands of people across the county.
To register your interest in becoming a torch reporter, email Martin Jefferies and let us know where you'll be watching the torch and what you'll be doing as it passes by.
We'll add as many of your memories as possible to our map, which will also include pictures from KM Group's team of photographers across the county, as well as video and audio from our multimedia reporters.
We'll tell you of more opportunities for our readers to contribute nearer the time.
The interactive map forms part of KentOnline's extensive coverage of the build up to the Olympic Games, which includes interviews with our Olympic and Paralympic hopefuls.
