Estill Development Alliance ******************************* would like to offer a huge THANK YOU to all of the Sponsors & Artists working on LocoMagic so far. |
|
Have teamed up to help 20 children at Cardinal Hill Hospital decorate 5 trains. Estill Development Alliance has donated the first train but we need 4 more sponsors to complete the project.
Please contact us at 606-723-2450 or email at info@locomagic.net if you or your organization would like to be a sponsor.

|
***************** Sponsors are needed to make this project work in our small community. We know $900 is a lot of money to spend on a sponsorship. However, in comparison to other advertising methods sponsoring a train statue is the best because it does not go away after the project is over. Your name, organization, or company will still be on the train for years and years to come. Please consider sponsoring one of our statues and be a part of our community forever. ***************** |
