Where to hang flyers to advertise pet adoption event on Sunday

My daughter is helping coordinate the Furry Hearts adoption event on Sunday.  Where would you say are some of the best places to hang flyers advertising it?  It's already in the listing on MOL and in the paper.  Thanks and come out to Beth El on Sunday to adopt an adorable kitty or too oh oh


In SO, there are boards for hanging up flyers in the train station, Ashley Market, Village Diner, the library (give the flyer to someone at the main desk for approval), and Starbucks.  Have her bring her own push pins and tape.  There may be other boards as well but that should get her started!


How about the post office, stores, library ~~


cupoftea has a good idea about the push pins and tape ~~


Maplewood has several community bulletin boards around town (bring a staple gun).  You'll probably need a car to be most efficient.  

Locations: in town near Ricalton parking lot, corner of Valley and Oakland at Memorial Park entrance to playground, Oakview & Valley, Baker & Valley, DeHart Recreation Building on Burnett, on Parker near Boyden at entrance to park.  Some stores will let you hang (Village ice cream), etc.


Great ideas to use the real Maplewood Community Bulletin Boards..........However maintenance like pulling out of date posters is done by volunteers.  Staples work great for posting but unless the staple is removed later,  the entire board becomes a mass of staples.  Please use push pins  or any easily removable means and make life a little easier for the volunteers

Village Coffee also welcomes announcements

St. James Gate usually allows them to be posted on their doorway

Just inside the exit door of Kings there is a board for posting.


Think of who your desired audience is - persons looking to adopt pets - and then ask yourself where those persons are most apt to be between now and adoption day.  Local pet stores, supermarket bulletin boards, the train station bulletin board (if you can get fliers up today), and community bulletin boards in the local parks could work well.  Having someone spreading the word by the bank in Maplewood Village on Saturday morning could work too.

ETA:  Facebook pages focused on local issues/discussions would be a good supplement to the on-line media already being utilized, especially if you or a friend belongs to one or more of these groups and has authority to post messages there.
