Town Sells Nearly Nude Calendars to Plow Its Roads

A small American town has funded its snowplows by selling calendars featuring its nearly nude residents. Last winter, Lakeview, Oregon, faced a budget shortfall for clearing snow from its roads. Instead of raising taxes, community leaders proposed an unusual solution. They recruited twelve local volunteers to pose for a fundraising calendar. The calendar features tasteful, suggestive poses that conceal more than they reveal. All proceeds will go directly to the town's winter road maintenance fund. The project has sparked both amusement and strong support within the community, with many residents purchasing multiple copies. Organizers say the initiative has already raised significant funds. They hope it will ensure all roads are safely plowed this coming winter.
