An Important Note About Sponsorship

Sponsors of The Ester Republic
The Republic operates on a shoestring budget with help from numerous volunteers. It represents a community-wide effort to provide a public forum for the Ester Commonwealth. This forum also acts in small but growing measure as an alternative voice for Interior writers and readers. According to several local business owners, advertising in The Ester Republic is more than a commercial decision, it is sponsorship of this public forum.

Advertising Disclaimer

The Republic does not adhere to rigid publishing deadlines (more's the pity) so if you have a time-sensitive advertisement, be sure and let the ad director know. Advertisers assume liability for all content, including text representation and illustration of all types of advertisements, and assume liability for all claims made against their ads. We'll warn you if we spot something dicey, however.
