Great Lakes Bay Regional Expo 2009

Held Tuesday, May 5, 2009

There is nothing like a trade show to provide you with face-to-face marketing to potential and current customers.

Bay Area Chamber of Commerce (BACC) President Mike Seward was going "booth to booth" on Tuesday afternoon, thanking exhibitors for taking part in the annual Mid-Michigan (now Great Lakes Bay) Regional Business Expo.

The Expo regularly draws 3,000 visitors, and is a cost effective way to reach a large audience.

"The expo is a regional effort by the Bay, Saginaw and Midlands Chambers of Commerce," said show manager Diane Card. Late afternoon on Tuesday, Card was finally relaxing. "It's always a full week getting the expo up and running," Card said. "I think it went really well," Card said of the 13th annual event.




PRODUCKS - NAME THE DUCKS!!
Paul Scheppe from St. Johns Lutheran Church suggested the winning names for Producks mascots: "Sherlock Holmes" and "Dr. Watson" - Paul won the $100 Gift Certificate. (Personally, I think my suggestion of Cuff & Link, should have won.)
