I'll make a thread about it on our boards, but since Mistress and I are about the only ones that ever check it, I forsee not much interest, but I could be mistaken. raised_brow



I am a member of the 501st...kinda. No numbah and just the public forums...but I haven't posted there yet and am kinda nervous to do so. Dig up your password, woman! Or make your hubby do it.


and yes, I believe we are the only two who regularly check the SCFF boards. sad

Sorry it's been a while! I just got back from Moab.

Yes, Kim, I'll try to see if the theatre down in the Springs is interested in doing this with us. I really hope their marketing manager is up to it! I'm also trying to get a hold of Lucasfilm to get more promo stuff.

I'll also let Mall security know that we're toting blasters, and then I'll remind them again later on so they don't freak out.

I am going to start posting signs around at least the theatre about the promotion to get people to plan on coming the 16th for the event, and bring donations with them.

Did I get everything?

How about talking to the Mall Marketing Manager? See if they want to try and help promote/get involved? Would definitely score major points with corporate and the mall ownership to see that kind of thing. grin

Will do! Usually it's just getting everything ok'd with the mall, and then us doing all the work. I'll see what I can get them to do on their own happy

I pm'ed Kevin and asked if he would help me. I only have access to their public forums, and they are discussing the premiere, but it seemed the bulk of the conversation was taking place in their private forums.

LotM said there is no theater they are affiliated with in C.S., so you guys would be on your own. So if we want to drop this idea now, let's do and focus on the Denver branch, they can always share the loot if they want to tongue

ZOO & I will be working on a donation letter and press release tonight so I can run it by U.P. so we can get it to all of you later this week if not early next week.

Then we can email our work, family, or companies of your choice (we can start a list of who is zooming who later).

I don't see a whole bunch of chatter about this yet, but I'm sure you will come up with great ideas at the meeting and I know all of you will make this a HUGE event. We will have them hauling this stuff out by the truck loads, hehehehehehe.

Sock It To 'Em at the Mills

I love that grin


I think a Star Wars-related slogan would be better than a CO Mills related slogan, since people will already be at the Mills theater, but we want to strengthen the tie between our event and the movie. Plus movie quote-related slogans have more sticky power than a new slogan affiliated with the theater.

Suggestions:

May the Socks be With You
Donate. There is no try.
I love donations. I know.
I find your lack of donations disturbing.
You don't know the power of donations!

Perhaps including the theater as a significant, but second tier part of the message will make this promotion memorable.

I like this: May the Socks be With You

Or "The Socks are strong with the Clone Wars"

Oh, jt, so many clever ones. I agree, we don't have to have Mills in the title, it's being held at the Mills & by listing it in the letter/flyer/press should be enough. AND we are not sure the Mills Mall is interested yet, so it may just be the theater.

Thanks for everyone throwing ideas around, this is what make us so great.
