Hi. My name in Tracy Saboe, I run the Meetup group in Sioux Falls, SD and sponsor the one in Rapid city. I'm also assistants for severalother groups, and have been heavily involved in the state as a whole.

We're in the process of putting up some billboards here in South Dakota. We want to put one up in Yankton, and another one in the Sioux Falls Area. Yankton will cost about $400/month and Sioux Falls willcost about $1000/month Plus initial set-up fees for both. Total costabout $3000 because we want them up the next 2 months.

This is very important, for people in the Largest City in the State to realize Paul has not left the race. We need to make a downpayment by March 31st

We also want to put up BillBoards in the Rapid City area, Brookings,and Aberdeen. So, any amout over and above the $3000 will be for more billboards.

Please. Let's have Ron Paul have a strong finish.

First of all, let everyone on meetup know.

Secondly, use the myspace groups to send out messages. This is a big deal.

As you need a lot of money in a short amount of time, the forums will not be very effective at this point. The best avenue is an e-mail, myspace, and facebook 'bomb'.

I would also contact Trevor if you can get a hold of him, as he has a huge mailing list.

Can't help with money, but do you guys need banners and signs? We have a few left in AZ that we are mailing to other states. We also have a lot of slim jims and flyers that we are trying to get out to folks. If this interests you and your meetup, please pm me.

What's a facebook bomb?

I posted a note in my profile, and posted this messagee in many of the Ron Paul groups, other then that, I don't know what you mean.

Basically, send a message to everyone in the facebook groups for Ron Paul, as well as all of the myspace supporters of Ron Paul.

Have you contacted the campaign, by the way? Even if they just posted a bulletin on their myspace page, it would reach 100,000+ people.

How do I do that, with-out facebooks anti-spam bots flagging me and telling me to stop?

They can't do that with the main group because it's too big.

But I'll post and e-mail the group leaders of the smaller Ron Paul groups I know.

BTW. We've managed to raise money locally for the Billboard in Yankton.

So we really just need $2000 now.

I've had a check come in for $125 and another check for $200 seperate from the chip-in. So we're about $1700 short now.

Please people, this is important. Forward this to your facebook groups, and post notes, and myspace bullitons.

We want to get this up before April 15th if at all possible.

Any money left over will go towards trying to put one up in Rapid City in the other major population center of the state.

You guys should look into getting a South Dakota Ron Paul newspaper going. They are like $0.07 cents a piece and look amazing. I think that might convert more people than a billboard...especially older people. Plus I think you get more bang for your buck.

$2000 = 28,571 newspapers (That's by my ND math)


Ok I just saw Crystal post this on another thread...

"$2,800 for 50,000 newspapers" :eek:
