NEED HELP TO POST FLYERS

Howdy! We need to start postering the neighborhoods with Gus flyers ASAP! We basically need to start over because the original ones posted were not in plastic and are most likely destroyed by weather and time. Please let us know if and when you can help out. It's really important that this happens right away. I need folks for Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday efforts. Please comment if you can help. All are welcome!

I also really want to thank our new group of volunteers who came on to this search party. You are awesome. I would also like to thank a very generous kind soul who has paid for a tracking session to find Gus. Each and every one of you brings him one step closer to home. :)

If you can start flyering ahead of time, please see the attached map for the areas to target! Thanks!

  1. Please let me know what I can do to help. I have been watching this closely as my next door neighbor adopted one of the other dachsunds from the same puppy mill a year ago. Let us know what is the best way to help!!

  2. Hi Anonymous! Thanks for getting in touch. Can you print out flyers, get plastic sheet protectors, and head out to start flyering the area tomorrow? If yes--we'll give you a flyering assignment!

    Thanks for offering to help!

  3. Would someone be willing to provide an address we can use as a point of departure? I am from DC and have a limited understanding of where this area is. I only have a few hours to dedicate to this effort and don't want to lose time driving around. Please, please. please drop a google map onto the site.

  6. Anonymous: I just edited this post to include a map of the area that most needs to be flyered. You can center your flyering efforts on the address of the Country Club: 13200 Lee Jackson Hwy
    Fairfax, VA 22033-1999.

    Please be sure that all flyers go up in plastic page protectors--this is a must so we don't have to reflyer every time it rains. Once you flyer, please let us know which areas you targeted (street names and intersections) so that we both know where to send volunteers next, but also know where to go to take flyers down after we find Gus.

    Thanks so much for your help! If you want more info or want to join the Google group, where all planning discussions take place, please email me directly: daph4552@yahoo.com

    Thanks!
