Just a reminder that if you want some media coverage of the kick-off event then start contacting the newspapers (star/sun/globe/national post), radio stations, 680news.com, cfrb, am640 etc and of course the TV stations....make sure in you're "press release" you say clearly "what, when, where" and what they "cameras/reporters" will see and if interviews will be available...and contact information....

If you can get them to this event you just might get them interested in following a team during build season and perhaps the waterloo and GTR regionals.

I am a cameraperson that supplies news video to Global and I have let Global local and national know about this fine event....

my strategy would be to hit the "assignment desks" with info now and then again friday afternoon and first thing Saturday morning....in news our memory is auto-erased every two hours....seriously

sorry I haven't posted much lately, been busy with 15 hour shifts and unlike a robot or robot builders I actually do need sleep
I tried this, but the biggest newpaper in the state of Connecticut "sucks"!! I called a reporter at THE HARTFORD COURANT but the editors will not allow reporter to come out and do a story on the kick off. THE HARTFORD COURANT daily town section is down to about five pages and that includes two pages of death notices. That is what happens when you only have one major newspaper in town no competion, and they can control the news.
