Dear Friends,
Have you read my first post on

Let's go after city, county and state
proclamations in February. In March let's write the news media,
TV, Radio and Newspapers, and ask them what they are planning for

We have created 30 stories that
could be used on TV, Radio and Newspapers. See list below, please
copy and use where ever they will be helpful.
If you would like to receive a
