CAST YOUR VOTE TO SAVE THE CAJUN COAST!

I could really use your help! All I need is a vote -- cast with the click of a mouse!

I'm trying to win a competition sponsored by American Express to fund a documentary about Louisiana's land loss. But, I'm not telling the same old story about coastal erosion. Most people are aware that we are losing Louisiana. What they don't know is that we're also losing an age-old way of life... the Cajun culture!

American Express is providing $2.5 MILLION in funding to carry out five winning projects. My project currently ranks in the top 50 in nearly 1200 projects. But, I won't move into the top 25 without votes!

Please go to www.bayoublues.net
That link will take you to the American Express project page. Once there, log in as a guest or card member and click "Nominate This Project". And, PLEASE leave a comment about the importance of this project. Discussion is as important as votes.

The site might be running slow due to increased traffic. Please don't give up. I need your vote!

Thank you for your support,
