Four times yearly the Independent offers advertising specials called signature ads. In the fall during the Ravenna High School fall sports season, a 10 week special is offered for $95. The ad may include your business name, address, phone, fax, e-mail address plus a line for your business message. Similar ads run for 2 weeks in the Christmas and New Year’s editions, mid winter for winter sports wrap up and National FFA week, and late spring for RHS graduation and spring sports. For $35 you can have your business on a 2 week signature ad.
