NEW GREEN BOOK PAGES WANTED
Announcing a NEW Special

In an effort to encourage Clubs and Fleets who have not traditionally published their event or page in the CBYRA Green Book, we are running a NEW promotion for a limited time.

 

Receive a special discounted rate of $60 per NEW page in the 2012 Green Book if your Club or Fleet has not published a page in the past three years. That is 30% off the regular price! Pages and payments must be received by 1800 on Friday 27 January. This offer is good for PHRF, Cruising One Design or One-Design event pages. Contact the Green Book Editor, Mark McGonigle, at greenbook@cbyra.org for more details and support creating your NEW page.

 

For Clubs or Fleets who currently have pages in the Green Book, you can get a special price of $75 for any additional NEW pages! All NEW draft pages and associated payments must be received no later than 1800 on Friday 27 January.

 

Existing rates and deadlines still apply for all current Green Book pages and payments.  Late fees are now being assessed.

UNIQUE ADVERTISING OPPORTUNITY
Blow Them Away With Blow-in Cards

We are proud to announce a new approach to publicizing your event to Chesapeake Sailors. You know those little postcard sized pieces that are randomly inserted inside of magazines? They are called "Blow-In Cards".

 

For the first time ever, CBYRA is offering this advertising option for the Green Book. Now you can advertise Club events, Fleet schedules, or other important information on a card that people will get in their Green Book. They can post your card on their refrigerator at home while their Green Book stays on their boat.

 

For only $250, your Club or Fleet can have a 4" x 6" full-bleed black and white advertisement... you can even make it double sided! The information can be free-form in any text, style or design you want. You provide the artwork in electronic format, we do everything else.

 

The deadline to submit your content is 1800 on Friday 10 February 2012. 

 

Contact Mark McGonigle at greenbook@cbyra.org for more information.
