I called the Maui News, the Island's oldest and best newspaper, the one with the widest daily circulation, to tell them about Stuart. An award winning reporter came to my studio. Stuart turned a bowl for her, and then she interviewed him. Story came out today, made the front page! The story continued on page 4. So far I have received 7 calls, generating 8 new paying club members, they have to pay club dues in order to watch him tomorrow. Great timing on the free marketing! I actually got the idea from the AAW when I got the club started... I will attach a picture of the newspaper...
We are expecting a good turnout...

Wow Emiliano! I clicked the “like button” , I wish there was a “golden” button, as on the TV show America’s Got Talet, because I would press it on the fine job you are doing in promoting our craft.

Thank you for your nice comment Dennis!!
 
Good job. When he was here, I was on club Board and we never thought of calling a newspaper or tv station, so you deserve a thumbs up for getting the publicity
