Officials with the Harlan Community School District say there are calls being circulated with regard for advertising on athletic posters. Athletic Director Mitch Osborn said in a press release a man by the name of “John Pennington,” is calling businesses to sponsor a poster of athletic schedules. Pennington contacted our sister station KNOD in Harlan on Tuesday, about purchasing an ad on the poster.

Osborn says the school has a partnership with the Harlan Newspaper and it is the only school sponsored athletic poster and schedule. The paper then contributes back to the school programs.
