Top and Tent Newsletter Contest Announced!

In response to suggestions made by members of the CFA, the Public Relations Committee voted to offer Tops and Tents the opportunity to participate in a Top and Tent newsletter contest.

If successful, the contest will be held annually and the winners will be announced at the convention. The PR Committee will also display newsletters at the convention as a way to exchange ideas for developing newsletters. Newsletters are a great way to communicate to Top and Tent members. The contest particulars follow:

The Stupendous, Incredible, and Amazing CFA
Tent and Top Newsletter Contest!!

WAIT for the Big Contest! Don't You Dare Miss It!

The Public Relations Committee of the CFA invites submissions of local Top and Tent newsletters in an Amazing and Thrilling Contest That will Delight, Entertain, and Instruct Circus Fans from around the USA!

There are 3-Count'em, THREE-Rules to Consider:
  1. All newsletters must be received for consideration by May 1, 2005 and mailed to:
    • Edward W. Limbach
      332 Inwood Trail
      Aurora, Ohio 44202.

  2. Tops and Tents may submit as many examples of their newsletters as they wish; however, all submissions will be judged by the same criteria: Originality, Creativity and Applicability to the mission, programs, and public relations needs of the Circus Fans Association of America. Newsletters for the competition should be submitted with four copies.

  3. Prizes will be awarded in the following categories:
    • Most Newsworthy
    • Most Ingenious Layout and Design
    • Most Stupendous Content
      ... and, Last, but not least ... Can you stand it ... here it comes ...

  1. All submissions must be clearly labeled with Tent/Top Name, editor’s contact name, address, and phone and/or email.
  2. All submissions will become the property of the Public Relations Committee, and its extensive, educational, and world-renowned archives of Circusiana.
  3. The decisions of the judges are final, conclusive, and definitive, in keeping with the best traditions of Circus arts and letters developed, believe it or not, over the Last 200 Years of Circus in America!!

And now, hurry just a little, and submit your newsletters without delay, hesitation, or procrastination. Now is the time to go if you’re going…step right up for the Great CFA Tent and Top Newsletter Contest!!

The contest rules were developed by PR Committee member, Dr. Mort Gamble. Questions can be directed to Edward Limbach at 330-995-3378 or Elim784586@aol.com.
