‘Take Us Along’ Contest Pictures Sought
For the past several years the Stillwater Valley Advertiser has published “Take Us Along” pictures, randomly drawn from submitted entries Our readers tell us how much they enjoy seeing where their friends and neighbors spent their vacations
Contest submissions must include a COLOR photograph with someone holding a copy of the Advertiser, with a scenic background showcasing your vacation destination, such as the Golden Gate Bridge, Statue of Liberty, Grand Canyon, etc Space is occasionally available on our front page (the reason a color photo is required); however, winning photos may be placed inside the Advertiser and could be published in black and white Photos taken in private homes and yards, restaurants, airports, etc , are not acceptable contest entries Photos must be in focus and not too dark or too light
Include the names of the persons pictured and background information about your trip (dates, points of interest, amusing anecdotes, whatever you wish to include in your picture caption) We’ve drawn many contest entries that would have been perfect, but they lacked sufficient information and had to be rejected
Most importantly, many entries don’t include a return mailing address so the winner can have their picture returned to them If e-mailing your entry, it should be in a jPeG or TIFF format and e-mailed to: arenspub@gmail.com
Mailed contest entries should be addressed to: Arens Corporation - Stillwater Valley Advertiser “Take Us Along” Contest, 395 S. High St. - P.O. Box 69, Covington, OH 45318.
With vacation season just around the corner we look forward to receiving many Take Us Along contest pictures Don t forget to invite the Advertiser along on your next trip!!!

Do You Have News to Share?
As we’ve said many times, the Stillwater Valley Advertiser is not a newspaper in the sense most think of a newspaper The key is in our name – AdVertiSer This publication relies on paid advertising to generate income for printing/postage costs, staff salaries, and building/equipment maintenance
However, the Advertiser is pleased to be of service to the community by offering open space – when available –to help our readers share news they feel is of interest to the community, such as engagements, weddings, milestone birthdays and anniversaries, birth announcements, five generation pictures, Vacation Bible Schools, library programs school and club events etc
If an organization, even non-profits like Veterans organizations, charge for a steak, chicken, or fish fry, we can’t offer free advertising to them, as their event competes with area restaurants who do pay for display advertising Churches also compete with restaurant advertisers when they host Chili and Spaghetti Dinners, etc The key is in what is done with the funds generated For example, a church hosting a dinner to raise money for a new organ would be charged to advertise that event However, if the church is hosting a dinner to benefit a family experiencing a health crisis or who have lost their home in a fire, the Advertiser waives the cost of advertising as our contribution to the effort
Those wishing to advertise an event that does charge an admittance fee can do so by including that information in our Calendar of Events for just $15 per week
If you question whether or not your event qualifies for free advertising, feel free to call our office at 937-4732028 Monday thru Friday 8:30 a m until 4:30 p m Our helpful staff will be happy to assist you, or will direct your call to Gary Godfrey, president of Arens Corporation
