BCCVB June 2003 Member Mailing

As a member of the Bucks County Conference and Visitors Bureau, you are able to promote your products and services to visitors, group tour operators and meeting planners when you partner with us in one of the BCCVB cooperative advertising programs.

To help guide you through our marketing opportunities, attached is our 2003-2004 Cooperative Advertising Chart to use as a quick reference. In addition, we have attached a copy of our new advertising contract with detailed descriptions of the many marketing opportunities. Also, be sure to look out for other cooperative opportunities that may arise throughout the year regarding our new Bucks County Bridal Showcase.

It would be my pleasure to meet with you at our new Visitor Center and discuss your marketing plans. And, while you are there, come take a tour, see the new orientation film and meet the information specialists who speak daily with people interested in Bucks County.

I look forward to assisting you with your marketing plans for 2003/2004! Please call me at 215-860-3090 if you have any questions or to schedule an appointment.

Attached, please find the forms for submitting your packages and special deals and discounts for the Spring and Summer.

On the PR Front ...

As the weather warms up (and hopefully the rain will eventually stop) interest in Bucks County is on the increase. We will be hosting a group of journalists from the United Kingdom during the month of June. As the summer months continue, we will be hosting other press events.

The BCCVB is happy to congratulate one of its own. David Jackson has been nominated as "Supplier of the Year" for the Philadelphia Chapter of Meeting Professionals International. He will also be the Master of Ceremonies for the Silver Anniversary of the Annual Awards Gala on June 18 in Philadelphia. Look for more information on David's achievements on the BCCVB's Web site.

Something else for which to keep your eyes peeled is the arrival of the Jeanie Johnston. The Jeanie Johnston is an Irish emigrant ship that will be docked at the Bristol waterfront for four days in late June. The docking will coincide with the Bristol Celtic Festival.

With Fourth of July celebrations sneaking up on everyone, please send any events, specials, packages, etc., that you are offering to [email protected] to be included in the Independence Day press release. The release will go out to the local media and will highlight as many celebrations that will be going on in the county as possible.
