Partner with VA Tourism to Stretch your Marketing Dollars

Dear Virginia Golf Marketers:

*The Virginia Tourism Corporation Marketing Leverage Program application process is now open! At our golf meeting in March, we encouraged golf resorts, courses, trails and other partnerships to apply for these funds. Money awarded can be used for advertising, golf shows, website development, brochures and many other golf-related marketing opportunities. The awards amounts have been increased to $10,000 and $50,000. 

Click here for a fact sheet on the grants.  There is more information on the program at: http://www.vatc.org/PAM/leverageprog.asp  

The deadline is June 28th, and as a reminder, we encourage you to meet with the VTC staff that handles the grants as they will review your application and give your feedback before the deadline!

*Also, please consider stocking and distributing the 2011 Virginia Golf Guide in your pro shop. They are packed 66/box and VTC will ship them to you at no cost. Many golfers will play your course and may return (we hope), or will consider playing another course in Virginia. We want to encourage repeat play in our state and having a golf guide available for them to take home is one way to do this.

Please let me know if I can ship a box or two to you.

Thanks for your consideration and best wishes for a strong May!

Judy
