Guest Blog--Midcoast Community Chorus Ad Campaign

by Cindy Anderson

Greetings fellow supporters of Midcoast Community Chorus. Our ad campaign is in full swing in anticipation of our November 29^th deadline. We are accepting ads for our January program.

 As you know, we are a community giving BACK to the community through substantial financial support for various beneficiaries. We have given $10,000 to New Hope for Women; $10,000 to the Knox County Free Health Clinic; and $9,500 to Five Town Communities that Care.

 We are a non-profit organization and depend on our ad sales and ticket sales to acquire our funds. We have a wide variety of ad sizes and prices available. Our program booklet is approximately 5”x 7”.

Ad rates are as follows:

1/8 pg. - $30 (we usually shrink a business card slightly to fit this ad request)

¼ pg. – (vertical or horizontal) - $50

¾ pg. - $100

Full pg. - $135

Inside front or inside back cover – (black & white) - $200

Back cover (full color ad) - $350

You may email your ad to me: Cynthia Anderson, Ad Manager: anderson4215@roadrunner.com. Please leave your name and a phone number where I can reach you for payment arrangements. You may also send your ad with payment to: Midcoast Community Chorus, P.O. Box 192, Rockport, ME 04856.

The Midcoast Community Chorus is a multi-generational chorus of 140 members offering a supportive environment for anyone who wants to sing. Performing music of hope, healing, and peace all over the world. Singers are given a place to find voice for themselves and give voice to some of the issues of our time, with the belief that “when we sing, we change who we are, when we change who we are, we change the world.”

 MCC performs two concerts a year, In January and June. This year we are also performing under the umbrella of Bay Chamber Concerts, with Grammy Award winner, Paul Winter, noted composer and renowned musician. We are very proud to be invited to perform with this internationally acclaimed musician.

Thank you kindly for any contribution you can give to support us in our endeavors, and we hope to see you January 9^th at the Strom Auditorium in Camden Hills High School, at 4:00 p.m. for our winter concert.  Ticket information will be announced soon. Again, we thank you so much for your continued support.
