One Day Left to Submit Phrases for the Clatsop Bumper Sticker
Clatsop County wordsmiths are invited to participate in a competition to create a catchphrase that captures the spirit of Clatsop County Democrats. The slogan will be used on bumper stickers that will be available for this summer’s County Fair and picnic. Submissions will be voted upon at the June 23 meeting. Entries should be submitted no later than June 20, so that they can be published in advance. The two design constraints are that the bumper sticker will contain the words “Clatsop County Democrats” and the catch phrase should be five words or less.Send entries to: DemCatchPhrase@gmail.com
