This is the letter sent out for the Offical Announcement. We will have more contests later on this year. As I said we may have had some suprises in store.......we did.

Thanks to all our listeners and the letter while it may not have your name on it, is written for you too, its from the heart and I wanted to share it with you.


Guys,

Thanks for playing and as always thanks for listening. This project would be no where without ya. It is hard to believe that we have came so far in just a short time August 28th will mark our 5th month anniversary, yes 5 months. We have had a lot of gracious things said about our show, by not only fans but our industry as well. Please continue to help us spread the word about Our History Project and our efforts as a nonprofit organization bent on persevering and educating America on our history. That sounds a little funny to me because we have a lot of overseas listeners as well that I am in contact with.

Do me a favor, over the next couple of weeks can you burn 10 disks (CDs) and hand them out to others who may not have not heard the show? Any one of the shows will do.

It would help us get the word out so to speak. Tell everyone about us and if you have suggestions, comments or criticisms please let me know. You are the rock on which this project is formed because you are some of the first here and if we screw up we need to know. If we can make it better then we need to know that to.

Before we get started I want to thank all of our sponsors that made this possible, please visit them often so we can have more events like this in the future:

Ok, here is what everyone's waiting on….Drum roll please!

1st place: Mark H. from AL. : Grand prize as we mentioned with the exception of Mark we upgraded the cuff eagle to an Eagle I Button and the southern papers to the complete OR on CD. Woohoo! That is courtesy of John Walsh at Fort Donaldson Relics.

The race was close, very close in fact under 5 minutes close, so remember when I said there may be more to the contest than what you thought well - yep there is.

2nd place goes to Steve F from VA: This include the Eagle cuff button, what I believe is a bullet puller/extractor , a cut bullet, a book, a Research & Recovery DVD, OHP Membership and last but not least the Southern Papers (52 Vol. set) On CD!

Good Job Guys!!!! Your both winners!

And, its not over yet - Remember I said don't stop there may be something more…… Yep there was!

3rd place goes to Mike from TN: You get a book and a one year Membership!

And

4th place goes to: Ed from GA who also gets a Book is now a card carrying member of Our History Project!

That's it folks, Ian and I want to thank you again for all you do, you're the reason we are here and the reason we are staying.

Thanks,

Craig
