Back At You Jean

Jean,

Thanks for taking the lead on this worthy project. Collectively "we" must become better at promoting ourselves and these cards are great step in that direction. I know that the kids at Inverness and Lake Wales really got excited when handed these cards. This is a reasonable expenditure for each of us to make in order to promote our sport and build fan support.

For those of us who have yet to hit a USTS race this year, can someone explain what the postcards are all about?

another way to promote our sport

Joe,

They are basically an autograph card on 4x6 glossy postcard stock. Photos of boat(s) and driver on the front, team info and driver bio on the back. I handmade some samples earlier in the year with good feedback so I decided to offer them to the USTS drivers (since I have photos in my collection of just about all of them).

I just proofed Brian's and it is outstanding. Jean has done a fabulous job. Maybe she can post one that is done on HR for all to see. We should all have them.

Like Trading Cards

For those of us who have yet to hit a USTS race this year, can someone explain what the postcards are all about?

Joe

They are like large sport trading cards, only without the nasty, stale stick of gum. At this point, I believe Jean is concentrating on racing boats and will get to runabouts later with the Bass Fishermen.

[Joe J]

Mr. Weaver:

Are these the same "Racing" boats that have the training wheels on them?

So you have seen the proof for David's postcard
Ellen said she would take off the training wheels if he brings home a medal

Let's be accurate, it is gold medal and the "prize" was a little more motivating. (if I remember correctly).

Joe, just wait till those Europeans get a good look of your canoe at the 2008 250cc WC's!!! They will be too scared to leave the dock....

While you may see her incentive as motivating, I think Ellen sees it as safety.

Connie - Thanks for such a nice compliment! It's been quite an adventure trying to figure out how all this printing and graphics stuff works.


FYI - These are very low resolution files. The quality here does not reflect the actual printed image.

Jean must have put hours into each card. They are great and we are all thankfull to have such a dedicated "Photogirl"!
