Christmas in July Gala 2010

"Christmas in July" will come to Augusta Pines on July 31 this year, sponsored by the Spring-Klein Chamber of Commerce.  That night the historic first edition of the Spring-Klein Chamber's membership directory will be distributed along with the event's program. 
 
The directory will be "purse sized," approximately 8 ½" x 7", so you can carry it in your handbag or take it in your car, and you can refer to it often as you go about your daily business.  The directory will have current contact information for everyone who is a member and has provided his/her information as of our deadline date, July 15, 2010. 
 
The purpose of this letter is threefold. 
 
1.            To remind everyone to be sure your membership is current.  (Some of the people on our email list failed to renew.)  Only current paid members will be listed in this directory.
2.            To remind everyone to update contact information for yourself and for your business.  The directory won't be reprinted for at least a year.
3.            To provide you with information about advertising prices.  Only current paid members will be allowed to run ads in this directory.
 
Description Size Investment
 
Full page 6 ½" x 5" $150.
Half page 3" x 5" $100.
Quarter page 3 " x 2 ¼" $ 75.
Eighth page 1 ½" x 2 ¼" $ 50.
Back cover - outside 6 ½ " x 5" $500.
Back cover - inside 6 ½" x 5" $250.
     
 
Any advertisement you place in this publication will be seen and referred to regularly for at least the next year.  It will be distributed to Chamber members and may be passed along to others in our community.  Because this directory will be a "keeper," its advertising will pay off month after month, and hence will be of more value than a similar size ad placed in a newspaper or a shorter-lived publication. 
 
See the attached Ad Page for more details on ads. 

If you have any questions; please feel free to ask myself or any of the Events Committee Members.
