Donations are no longer being accepted. We raised approximately $1400 for the ads.
Thanks you all for your generosity and support.
Mike
I have contacted the Lansing State Journal to place an ad in the "Local/State" section of the paper to say "Thank You" to the employees at the Craft Centre from all of us.
The Journal has volunteered to help do the creative parts of what the ad will look like and will work with me to get the clearest message possible. I'm gonna have to trust them. The lady was emotionally moved to jump in with us and committed same from her counterpart that will actually place the ad. She said that this is important and that they will help all they can.
The ad will run on both Monday, Feb 27 and Thursday, Mar 2 to coincide with the Fanatics tours. Because of the nature of our visit and the reason for the ad, the Journal is contributing matching funds for whatever space we have funding to buy. They have a community service fund especially for this purpose.
Our portion for a 4" by 2" (both days) is ~$205 total
Our portion for a 4" by 3" (both days) is ~$310 total
You can see where I'm going with this.......
The deadline for contributions is TODAY (Thursday) at 4:00 PM EST.
How big of an ad can we get funding for in 24 hours?
I have made a request for the cost of a half and a full page ad. Will post it when I get it.
Place your $ committments on this thread and I'll keep a list. 22 hours from now, at 4pm EST, I'll forward the dollar amount to the Lansing State Journal. That will set the size of the ad. I have linked paypal with my work e-mail address. Send your paypal contibutions using my work e-mail address [email protected].
OK Boys (and Girls too!!!!).... It's up to you, now....

If you don't see an "rx" next to your name, please be patient, as I am updating this every couple hours. Note the edit time and "tallied thru post number".
