If you have numerous announcements that you want to display on the intranet, the Carousel - Strip template is a perfect option. Designed for text-only messages, the carousel - strip cycles, so announcements rotate on your page, allowing you to get the word out about important announcements. This is a great way to remind teams about deadlines, company events, volunteer opportunities, or any notice that needs attention.

Note: The Carousel - Strip template is not a built-in template and will need to be added with the following steps below.
