web
posted February 11 2010
GREENWOOD – The second annual Family
Reunion Resource Show, sponsored by the Greenwood Regional Tourism and
Visitors Bureau, will take place on Saturday, February 27 from 11:00
a.m. – 2:00 p.m. at the Arts and Visitors Center at the Federal
Building, 120 Main Street. The purpose of the show is to show family
reunion planners the resources and businesses available in planning
their next event.
Registration is still open for vendors and the cost for a table top
booth is $25.00. The entry fee includes 10’x10’ space with 6 foot
table and 2 chairs. Reservations accepted on a first come, first served
basis.
“We learned about this idea from a Convention and Visitors Bureau in
Georgia and they always receive positive feedback from their planners”,
said Kelly McWhorter, Exec. Director of the Visitors Bureau.
“We hope to provide our attendees with as much information as possible
to help their reunion be successful and well attended. Our goal is to
feature approximately 25 vendors including hotels, caterers,
photographers, local attractions, transportation, screen printers,and
more.Greenwood is a great location for family reunions with some
excellent meeting facilities. We look forward to servicing more and
more events in the future.”
A new feature this year will include workshops that will feature a
genealogy workshop as well as a workshop on how to maximize and utilize
the services from the Greenwood Visitors Bureau. Each workshop will be
about 20 minutes long and will take place at 11:30 a.m. and 12:30 p.m.,
respectively.
Any business looking for potential marketing opportunities with family
reunions is welcome to participate. Each vendor will be asked to
provide a door prize with a $25 value which will be awarded throughout
the event. Also, the Visitors Bureau will be providing samples of
visitors’ bags for the attendees. During this event only, vendors will
receive the opportunity to insert one promotional item (flyer, coupon,
pens, etc.) into these bags. To register for the event as a vendor,
contact Lindsay Burns at 864-953-2464 or via email at
lindsay.burns@cityofgreenwoodsc.com.
