Best way to add text to the left column on only the home page?

[pocweb01]

I'd like to add a bit of copy on the top of the left hand column, but I only want it to show up on the home page. What is the easiest way to accomplish this?

I tried creating an html banner, but was not able to modify the code on my own to only show up on the home page. I'm hoping there is an easier solution.

Thanks

I'd use the blank sidebox mod.

There's a (long) thread here about showing sideboxes by page.
