Chris, your efforts will not go unrewarded. Have some hand outs ready and talk to the people. You'll do great. Have you found a meeting to attend in your area? I'm starting one in my community here in Ohio in May then once a month thereafter. If you need help with this, come to this site and the people here can help.
Best of luck on Tax Day! Notify local media of your event if you haven't done so already.

Good for you on getting your letters published! I'm beginning to think my local paper has an agenda. They've always published my letters in the past on other issues, but can't get a nibble on this one. Hmmm. I'll get it done one way or another.

That's ok. We do what we can when we can. One of AFFT community coordinators told me I needed to get monthly meetings started. This woman has been a huge help to me, though she lives three hours away. We met here on FTN. I was frustrated because I felt like the only FairTaxer in my community. My first meeting is scheduled for May 7 in our local library (free of charge) and we'll be focusing on education and raising awareness of the Fair Tax. You can place an ad in the event section of the newspaper for free, so I'm doing that, too.

I downloaded some of the fliers here and on fairtax.org and have passed them around in the cubbyhole sections of mail boxes - not the actual mail box itself.

I share this with you to give you some ideas of what you can do. Our meetings will be monthly and those who become supporters will attend so we can work on ways to get the word out.

Best of luck and keep in touch.
