Opportunities to Help Get Curtis Bostic Elected
If you believe that Curtis Bostic is the best candidate to represent you and your family in the U.S Congress, as we do, would you please consider helping our local efforts to get him elected? Informing our friends, neighbors, and co-workers of the upcoming special election (March 19) is step one. Since this is a special election, many folks may not have heard about it or do not realize the importance of this election. Second, we need to tell as many people as possible about candidate Curtis Bostic – who he is, and for what he stands. (Mr. Bostic is *Pro- Spending Cuts *Pro Life * Pro Gun Rights *Pro Traditional Marriage and *Pro Parents’ Right to Direct Education).
There are many opportunities for individuals and families to help get Mr. Bostic elected. Some will help financially by donating to his campaign while others may host a drop-in at their home so that friends and neighbors can meet Mr. Bostic in person. Some may make phone calls reminding voters to go vote on March 19, while others may go door-to-door, or meet for rallies in selected neighborhoods to hand out information cards about the candidate.

Bring signs to hold as you sit in the auditorium. We want to have an enthusiastic base of Bostic supporters to fill the auditorium. This event is planned from 6-7 p.m at TCL.
- · We really need folks, especially in Bluffton and Hilton Head, to host open houses at their homes so that Mr. Bostic can meet likely voters and supporters. If you would like to find out more about this opportunity, please respond and we will send you instructions on how to plan and execute this simple, yet effective event at your home. Several daytime and evening dates are still available if you are considering hosting an open house.

He welcomes this opportunity to meet new people and share his vision for the future. Please respond if you would like to have Mr. Curtis speak at your group meeting.
- · We need individuals to make phone calls to likely voters. We will supply the list, script, and phones. We will have a phone bank set up at Campaign Headquarters in Beaufort.
- · We need individuals and families to go door-to-door handing out cards telling about Mr. Bostic. We will put families together, supply the list of selected homes and neighborhoods, and provide the campaign literature. We will most likely do this on Saturday, February 23.
- · We need individuals and families to wear Bostic t-shirts and hold up campaign signs at major intersections in Beaufort at specified times. We will coordinate the schedule and locations for those who sign up. You can do a shift for as long or as short as you like.

BJU receivers available
From Tyna Couch:
I have some BJU HomeSat receivers (and dish) that I would like to donate to a student studying technology if one can use it. All of my kids were homeschooled by live teachers at the university but the university no longer uses the satellite dish system any longer. Rather than toss it, I was hoping to find a student or teacher who would like to get creative with it. I was told that the system was pretty simple and could be modified for other applications. If you could share this info, I would appreciate it. God bless! Tyna <tynacouch@gmail.com>
