Title: Possible Promotional Opportunity
Post by: Puma Mami on November 12, 2011, 09:59:25 PM
Hello everyone, this came to my attention a while back, and I posted here about it in July. A lot has changed since then, so I'm sending another heads-up your way.  ;)

An event called Liberty Day will be taking place on March 10th at Wheaton College as part of the 2012 Family Economics Conference (March 8-10). For the Liberty Day part of the conference they are going to reenact part of the 2nd Virginia Convention and Patrick Henry's Liberty or Death speech. They also have a Colonial-style dance, and many people wear American Revolution era reenactor costumes. This is a Bible-based Christian conference. They are taking applications for vendors. I'm not sure of the cost, but it might be a good opportunity to reach like-minded folks near Chicago.

Thanks for the reminder. This is my home turf. I'm pretty familiar with the Christian coalition colleges in the area. Do you have a contact, or should I hit my Rolodex?

Sorry, I don't have a contact. Just the web site. Looks like they want vendor inquiry emails sent to vendors@familyeconomics2012.com. There are also Facebook pages here: https://www.facebook.com/pages/Liberty-Day/274956378213 and here: https://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=255920341098419
