I've been able to discuss this issue only in brief with my sources.  And 
before for I go any further I would like to make sure that this is not a 
redundant suggestion.

I think that there is a lot of promise in approaching the later two, 
because were talking about soliciting several hundred buisnesses with out 
putting direct pressure on any one business owner.  We should shoot for 
individual supports contributing $50.-$200. depending on the size of there 
business (e.g. "Bob's Expresso Jerk" ~$50. and "Super-Safeway" ~$200.).
Working with these groups should give us pull with the County and City, and 
"barginning power" for race venues throughout the State.  Be aware that 
here lies perhaps two out of the largest private buisness cooperatives in 
the State.

The key is we offer visability to there respective business communities.
