-FROM THE CAPC OFFICE:

This is a fabulous opportunity to get great state-wide TV publicity for your business at little or no cost.

Good Morning Arkansas, on KATV from Little Rock and distributed throughout the state on cable, wants to do an ES package as the prize for their weekly picture puzzle .

They describe it thusly:

The puzzle is a weekly contest on GMA. We start it every Monday. Each day we reveal another piece of the puzzle and take the 7th caller to guess the person behind the pieces.

Each prize pack element would get a minimum of 2 mentions on Monday, up to 2 a day Monday-Friday, until the prize is won. If they would like to send us pictures or video (video would be best) we could also show this when we show the prize pack.

Are you interested in contributing a prize pack element in exchange for mentions on statewide TV? If so, read on.

Here's what can be contributed by local businesses:

-2-4 nights lodging, subject to availability, and it may contain blackout dates

-any meals, entrees, or restaurant gift cards (tax, tip and alcohol not included)

-significant discounts ($25 off $100 purchase, or $50 off $200 purchase), or gift cards, at shops and galleries

-attractions passes (already committed through "blanket" permission given to me: Ozark Mt Hoe-Down, Pine Mt Theater, GPP, TCWR, Blue Spring, Cosmic Cavern. other attractions are welcome to participate by contributing 2 passes--let me know)
