No Education = No Future
Congress of the United States February 21, 1997 The Honorable William Clinton Dear Mr. President: By now, your office should have received an invitation to one of the more interesting programs brought to my attention in many years. Because of your announced commitment to making education reform a key component of your second term, I hope you will give serious consideration to participating in the planned event. As you will see from the enclosed materials (the originals have already been sent to you), a dynamic education awareness campaign has been launched by an excellent corporate citizen of the Six District of North Carolina. Fairway Outdoor Advertising of the Triad, located in Greensboro, North Carolina, is sponsoring a "No Education = No Future" public service billboard campaign. The goal is to have 30 of these outdoor signs placed throughout central North Carolina in the coming weeks. We would be most honored if you would consider travelling to the Six District of North Carolina to help paint the 30th and final billboard. I have agreed to participate, but we would be thrilled to have you join us. The planned painting of the last sign is very flexible and would be accommodated to fit your extremely busy schedule. Enclosed are copies of the materials already sent to your office. I hope you will consider coming to North Carolina to show a tangible support of your commitment to education. Sincerely, Howard Coble Congress of the United States February 21, 1997 Mr. Jim R. Pridgen Dear Jimmy: Thank you for asking for our assistance in inviting President Clinton to participate in your outstanding program. I also appreciate your inviting me to participate. I have enclosed a copy of the letter we sent to President Clinton. I hope the President or a member of his Cabinet will be able to join us. Please keep Jan Scott in our Greensboro office apprised of your plans so that I will be able to attend. Thanks again for all that you are doing to better schools for our children. Sincerely, Howard Coble |
