Title: AquaMania Flyer!
Post by: ajm1961 on February 24, 2013, 09:59:26 PM
Here is the AquaMania flyer with details of talks, schedule, bios of speakers and list of sponsors and confirmed exhibitors.

Have a look and hope to see you all there at some point during the weekend!!
:)

Edit: here is a slightly modified version of the flyer. I have removed the mention of a special rate for rooms, as the deadline for reservations is TONIGHT, February 26 .

Looks good...

Are we going to be putting anything up on our FB page? Might be worth creating an event for anyone who is on FB to share/invite others...

CTV Ottawa noon news has a section where you can send in community events, I wonder if it would be worth sending the info in. I'm pretty sure it doesn't cost
anything to have it put on.

Will do...

I believe some of the othe local clubs (non-fish related) also get the EMC community papers to run articles on their events...

What about listing in the community events section of the citizen online? I know a lot of people read the citizen online.

Looks like it's shapin' up to be bigger than last year's event. Have we asked any of the sponsors to put the posters up at their establishments? That way we'd be directly targeting the right audience, and I'm sure some don't even know about OVAS.

Yes we have asked some & still working on some more.
