Ann,
What I was thinking that this years events could have been promoted maybe earlier with like the travel council. I thought they needed to have material submitted by Jan. I think it has good promotion just trying to think of ways to increase it. I might be good to try and get it advertised in more places. This years BOD may want to try and get next years festival advertising started before next years BOD is in office. Not trying to usurp their authority. Rodger writing an article is certainly good PR for next years festival. Erik Kevin, Chad, and NPS did quite a bit of PR for the event. When Kevin gets
online, maybe he can address this issue, as well as the visitors/contacts issue. I contacted local press. Other than our wonderful Sheena McFarland at the Trib, I think the other media outlets considered it a non story - maybe because it wasn't local?
You have heard of NYC's Naked Musician haven't you? How about SLAS's Naked Astronomer? That is what you need to get press. I am not volunteering, BTW.
