Shamrock Festival Ad Book Packets

 

Our show is scheduled for Saturday, October 18, 2014.  We need to get moving on selling ads!!  The deadline is September 21st, which is approaching fast!! We know the economy is not the greatest.  We know that people will be saying maybe next time, but DON’T GIVE UP.  Our budget is based on producing a great ad book.  We have each year and we expect to do so again this year BUT we need everyone working on the ads, not just a few people. Let each of us pitch in and do our part to make this a SUCCESSFUL year for our AD BOOK.  If you cannot sell ads please sell your family and friends $1.00 Boosters and you can bring in $20 or more. Every little bit helps!!

 

All Ads and money are to be returned to Chris Hoover

 

Members can give Chris the ads at Wildwood, or mail them to his house along with a check. My address is 306 Killoran Drive, New Castle, DE 19720-2726. You can call his cell if you have any questions. Cell 302-563-9535.
