Most of us around this great nation of ours have experienced pretty strange weather this spring so it's easy to forget that summer is right around the corner.
Now is the time to be setting your sights on your 4th of July celebrations and community events.
To help with your planning I've created a virtual gallery of all types of patiotic items you can use at events to build brand awareness, thank volunteers, highlight sponsors and generate revenue and promote the overall benefits of parks and recreation. Whether you use your artwork or choose a stock design from the ever-expanding logo gallery -- let everyone in your community know that your department is much more than fun and games and that you are in place to also "protects heritage, help and happiness" in good times and bad.
Not only should you place order for promo items; but now is the time to send news releases about July events to your regional monthly magazines who often may require two months lead time to include your information. Weekly publications will also appreciate longer lead time. Use these fill-in-the-blank news release templates to breeze through the process. Download publicity_templates_print.doc .
