 MEMBER NEWS

  

 

CENTURY NEWS

We are having a "50-Percent Off Holiday Sale" on any display advertising during the month of December: any size, any topic, any amount -- for anyone who isn't running an ad with us right now. The Century-News has moved to a Thursday edition, so our deadline is Fridays by 5 p.m. every week. That means there's still time to get in next week's paper. We can make up an ad for no extra charge or, possibly, use existing art work from another ad.  For more information contact Alice Wightman, Advertising Sales 512.847.2202, ext. 127 or vscadvertising@gmail.com
