banner <http://www.monarchvs.com/>  under the full screen electronic
<http://www.monarchvs.com/PG_051607.pdf>  displays located at every check
out counter.   contactied Monarch <http://www.monarchvs.com/>  Visual
Solutions to see if they would accept a JPEG
<http://pptstuff.homestead.com/VSC_free_with_Burgee.GIF>  for display on the
full screen portion of the displays at at our grocery store.

 

I simply sent them the following e-mail

I have noticed your display at the Econo Foods store in Sturgeon Bay.  I am
a member of the Door County Sail & Power Squadron a unit of the United
States Power Squadron.  The DCS&PS is interested in promoting boating safety
by providing free Vessel Safety Checks to all boaters.  We generally do this
in the spring at marinas and stores that deal in marine/boating equipment.
We also provide boating education courses and seminars to the general
public.  We are a non-profit organization under the 501(c) program.  

 

Can you put up the following JPEG in Sturgeon Bay for the next two to four
weeks?

    Click here <http://www.usps.org/door/VSC_Grocery_store.JPG>  to see the
picture. ( included actual picture in e-mail to Monarch Visual Solutions.)

 

 

Sincerely yours

=======================================================

They had my jpeg on display less than a week later. 

 

just thought I would share this little opportunity to get some press for
free.
