Request for Comments Feedback - Field Day advertising with KLAD

 

Thank you all for your feedback.

?? The club consensus is that we should not (have to) pay for advertising.? Chuck and I met with Amber at Northwest Broadcasting and discussed the options. $1400 for advertisements and a live feed on Saturday. $650 for two weeks of 24 ad spots, 12 paid and 12 matched because we are non-profit ...? She briefly mentioned PSA's are free for non-profits, with the DJ having discretion of what and when they are announced.
??I want to thank Chuck Huckabay for his effort to bring options to the table. I also want to apologize that we did not establish direction or a budget in advance. I will be requesting a Board Meeting (via Zoom) next Tuesday or Wednesday to talk about our oversights and how to proceed.
?
As it stands, It appears we do not have the time or will to advertise with KLAD this year.?

Comments and ideas are still very much welcome.

Thanx, Jeff Eastburn, K-BAR-A Secretary/Treasurer.

K-BAR-A Members,

?? I have been asked to put out a request for comments concerning Field Day advertising. Chuck Hukcabay, KJ7KWR, has made a connection with the KLAD advertising department and they appear willing and able to do one month of advertising and a remote broadcast from the Field Day site.
?? The first issue at hand is the expense. It may be as much as $1400, or SUBSTANTIALLY less once we submit our non-profit certificate.The other issue is short notice.? Even with an economical deal, we will not have a membership meeting to discuss and approve this. The board has some latitude, but we really need to represent the will of the membership.
?? There are some that think this is a golden opportunity to get our name and capability out there to the community. There are some who think this? money is better spent on other things.? All opinions are welcome and your input may provide options we had not considered.
?? We have a meeting with KLAD tomorrow morning to get more details.? I will send out what we come up with ASAP.

Thanx, Jeff Eastburn, K-BAR-A Secretary/Treasurer
