Help Shaleshock reach your neighbors!

A 10-day radio ad blitz has been initiated on three Cayuga Radio stations directing listeners to learn more about gas drilling by going to the Shaleshock website. Lawn signs with the same directive will be available to people who live in highly trafficked areas. Similar publicity for our cause is being planned but these efforts require money. Please send donations to Social Ventures, 124 Westfield Drive, Ithaca, NY 14850. Please list “Shaleshock radio ads/lawn signs” in the memo line on your check. More ways to support Shaleshock »
