WIN A VISIT FROM RON PAUL!!!! - http://www.ronpaul2008.com/meetup
In fitting with Ron Paul’s message of freedom and the advantages of competition, the Ron Paul 2008 Presidential Campaign announces a contest between the 700+ Ron Paul Meetup groups to help raise money for the campaign. The goal for each group will be to submit as many donations to the campaign as possible, either from themselves, family members, friends, or any other citizen who supports Ron’s candidacy.
To those groups that are the most successful, we will award four prizes, as follows:
[A visit from Ron]
TWO (2) GRAND PRIZES: A visit from Ron to your area! Ron will visit your city, meet privately with your Meetup group members, and then speak at a public rally organized by your group.
The grand prizes will be awarded to the following groups:
1.
The Meetup group that raises the most money in aggregate, and
2.
The Meetup group that raises the largest average amount of money per Meetup member, as of today, August 14th 2007. Note: To qualify for this prize, MeetUp groups must raise a minimum of $11,500, or the equivalent of five (5) $2,300 donations.
[Private Conference Call]
TWO (2) FIRST PLACE PRIZES: A private conference call between Ron and your group, and autographed pictures and books for your MeetUp members.
The first place prizes will be awarded to the Meetup groups that finish as the runner up in the two above categories.
