B. Marketing & Promotion
Everyone liked the magazine size for the program because it would make a good keepsake. An
idea was mentioned to have the magazine printed and sell it then use a smaller brochure to
giveaway at the event. Brian will reach out to Indian River Magazine to see how the advertising
works and Staff will inquire about pricing for the different size programs.
C. Art
The group will send pictures in the next couple weeks to Cathy that they would like to see in the
coloring book. Cathy will have them available at the next meeting for the group to choose. The
Marketing Branch will convert the picture to coloring book form. There will be 16 pictures in
the book along with a brief description of the picture.
D. Historical
Sally Maio said she has been working on going through the old minutes and picking out the
interesting information and constructing a timeline. An idea was brought forward regarding
displaying the historical information on 10 panels and having the panels displayed at the events.

doing a lot of cutting and pasting and it is very time consuming. She is hoping to email the
completed list to Cathy before the next meeting. She also mentioned sending out an email or
sending a postcard to the businesses before the door to door soliciting begins.
Brian will get the Mayor to write a letter to put into the packet to solicit sponsorships.
