New version of ad... sending to https://nopooltaxes.com website instead of BB. The nopooltaxes website has a direct link to BB. Also cleaned up wording.

Please review and comment (Update: Ad approved and starting Oct 4th)

I think we have dealt FOTP more than they bargained for. Now is the time for the knock out blow. Let's get behind Ray on this and go for 3 ads.Life is about making sacrifices for what is right. So give up a dinner out, trip to Wenatchee,that $6 cup of coffee or the tool you may want, and pass the money on to Ray. We need to carry this fight to the end and be heard.
Lets be the loud majority and protect the people of the valley from this uncontrolled financial hit.

Erin Bosco said it best. I'm paraphrasing. Our children will be burdened with this tax, that is if they can afford to live here.

I guess that's what the FOP means by "its for the children" a forever tax for your children.

The points we want to make are all in the ad, but the wording of the second sentence needs some work. But I like it.

It sure doesn't say exactly what Prop One is or what it means.
Tempting to do an ad that is real.

FOTP ad and our Against ad in Methow Valley News

1/4 page ad... $500-$600... I was not impressed with the ad as it's message was vague and weak.

If we want an ad, I think a 1/6 page for $350-$400 would be fine...

Do we want a donation drive to place an ad?
YES to a POOL_1.png
