Mike Sears is the contact person. Sarah needs to get their artwork. Jeff Watkins will be going over there, so he can talk with Mr. Sears.
Big D contacted Lenard Barney about possible sponsorship. It would be great if they would do it next year. It would be possible to have a Journal sponsor; however, back and inside covers are already sold. There might be another way to work that.
