We had a great day. The weather was sketchy for a bit. We did get rained on but it didnt deter the enthusiasm of the group of guys who helped me with the event. We had newsletter sign up sheets and got 158 new people to get our monthly newsletter. We offered a free raffle if you signed up with 17 prizes.They were as follows;
1) 2 night stay at Branch Brook Campground in Campton NH which also included a t-shirt, water bottle and tote bag.
2) Monster M10 10" Tablet
3) $50 Eastern Mountain Sports Gift Card
4) Book - 60 Hikes within 60 Miles of Boston
5) Book - Best Day Hikes in the White Mountains
6) Book - Waterfalls of the White Mountains, 30 Hikes to 100 Waterfalls
7) Book - Discover the White Mountains of New Hampshire
8) 10 GO Membership Upgrades
We also gave out alot of business cards and brochures giving us an opportunity to explain what our group was all about. We did have alot of ladies come to the booth so we told them about Chiltern.org (Thanks Chuck for knowing about that group).
I want to thank everyone who participated with me in this event and to all the members who stopped by to visit our booth. I aslo want to give a special recognition to my cousin Jeanette Crutchfield who designed our posters that we displayed. I had the idea she had the talent. I also want to give a big thanks to Scott (GO member Skypatrol) for donating the 2 new banners that you see hanging along the insides of the booth.
