Hey Mike,
To answer your questions- they are simply advertisers that help offset
the cost of many of our operations. For example, with the flyer, the
advertisers helped offset our costs of $5,887.71 for the printing and
mailing of them. (Thank you to those who chose to receive their
electronically!!) The website advertisements also help pay for Cheryl!
Please definitely do visit the folks who put in advertisements as it
definitely helps us as an organization!
I am also pleased to say that I have been working with many companies
to offer OBRA members discounts!!! (Sort of a value add for your
membership) - they will be included with your membership packet or e-
mailed to you (depending on which method you chose for delivery of
information).
Note that I will definitely send out another e-mail for those who are
interested in putting an ad in our next mailer!
Also in the mailer- Veloforma, Ironclad and Luna were sponsors of the
Norman Bacock Cat 4 Women's Series!
Thanks!
