Yelverton Tractor Run, Dog Show and Family Fun Day- Charity Event

Advertising 💰💷👛

I would absolutely love to get some banners and boards (maybe posters) made up to advertise next year's run.

Would there be any local businesses who would sponsor a banner? Also if I was to make a go fund me, would the public donate a small amount to help with this? I figured I would ask if It would be supported before I go through the effort to make one. ❤️

The banners will be used for many years and I would get stickers/velcro numbers to change the date each year.

Ive wanted to do this for a while but due to us changing the charity each year I see it unfair to take it off their total. And I have a young family so funding it myself just isn't possible.

Your thoughts and opinions are welcome in the comments. Id love to know what everyone thinks ❤️😁

A special thank you to Richard Eggins for leading the run with his daughter Esme. I can't thank you enough for organising the route, being a great lead and on top of that getting your wonderful wife Clare Eggins involved selling ice creams. Thank you so much 🚜❤️
