APA Yearbook ads 2018
« on: March 04, 2018, 07:31:52 PM »
Each year someone asks me "Are we doing a club ad for the APA".  Even though the Alliance is a dues paying associate member of the APA they don't notify us, so I have to check to see if and what they are doing as far as a yearbook.  They have a link on their site with the Yearbook info.
Of couse you may buy your own ads, but historically we offer Alliance members to join together in buying a "club" page or more.  Last year 3 members joined together to get a black and white club page.
The cost is $20/per 1/8 page ad space for black and white and $37.50/per space for color as I read their info.  May 1st is the submission deadline and they have a couple volunteers that will work with you to design your ad if wanted.  I'll need to know if you are participating.  Once we have enough to fill a page (B&W or color) you can pay the Alliance (we then pay the APA) and we can see if there is enough interest in another page or more.

I guess we are doing b&w again?  If so, I'll put something in.

Depending on the participation we can do B&W and/or color pages...just specify.

Debbie Hogan will take one ad space.  I told the facebook crew that April 15th was the deadline.

With Sue, Debbie and me that makes 3 out of six needed...if we all take single ads.  The only limit is 6 per page.  I'll do a color page if the other want too also.

I think Russ will join -- he typically does.  If not and we go b&w we can take two a piece and that would be about the same as one colour one.  Debbie would go along with that.  As for Dave's comment, I agree, that usually is business sop, but at least they realize their error and are correcting it going forward.

 If you end up needing just one space to fill up a page, then put me down.  But not if somebody else wants the space.

I am willing to take up to a half page color add if needed, or as little as one as well  ;)

I think it's great that Russ has Uncle Dave in his ad.  That's sweet.

You're more than welcome Russell.  And I agree, John did a bang up job with the ads.  I did rather miss not seeing FowlStuff though.
