[NEohioPAL] Dear Subscribers ...

Dear Subscribers,

NEohioPAL is now in it's tenth year of providing service to the Performing Arts Community.

Throughout it's history it has been free to all subscribers and posters and will remain free.

Last year at this time I sent out a request for voluntary financial support and some of you responded with great generosity. Thanks once again to those who have supported NEohioPAL! You can click on this link to see the list of supporters.

There are many costs to run this list: hosting fees, software, equipment and time. Expenses have gone up considerably as the fees from the new hosting service (listserve.com) are four times more per year than the previous service (hostway.com).

Once again this year, I am asking you to consider giving voluntary financial support to NEohioPAL.

Some people have written to me asking to post to the list what amount would be appropriate. Historically, the contributions from individuals have ranged from $10 to $100, and from organizations $25 to $200.

As you are deciding whether or not to give, please consider these questions...

What has been the value of NEohioPAL to your organization or career?
Has it saved you money?
Helped you get a job?
Assisted in promoting your event, auditions, classes or camps?
Kept you informed about happenings around town?
Assisted in selling a personal item?

If it is within your means and you choose to provide voluntary financial support - please click on the paypal link here,

OR send a check made out to "NEohioPAL, Ltd." and send to:

PS - I will post this message to NEohioPAL several times over the next few weeks and then not ask again until January of next year. Information on how to support NEohioPAL will always be in the footer of every posting.
