Nationals Publicity and Contest Announcement

Brothers,

I would just like to take this opportunity to remind you of all various ways that you can show your support for, and find out about the upcoming National Convention. As I'm sure all of you are aware the convention website is a great source of information for the brothers in your area, with information on the Galt House, convention registration, and the many events going on during the convention. During the next few weeks much more specific information will be appearing on the website with regard to the daily happenings of convention. As of now many of the social events of convention and the APO LEADS schedule are available on the website, and shortly information the promotional video that all of the chapters throughout the country received will be available on the website as well.

In addition to the website there are many other places where one can find information about the latest updates to the website, weekly blog postings by convention committee members, and much more. These places include the official convention blog available at http://aponationals2006.blogspot.com/, a convention LiveJournal group at, http://community.livejournal.com/apo_nats06/, and a Yahoo Group, http://groups.yahoo.com/group/apo2006_info/

Besides, these places for information about the convention there are many other exciting places to show your support for National Convention including a convention FaceBook profile, Louie Deville, A MySpace page available at http://www.myspace.com/aponationals2006, with a blog at http://blog.myspace.com/aponationals2006 and an AIM Bot, aponationals2006.

Also, we are still looking for photos for the convention slideshow, any brothers interested in submitting them should send them to sgoldman@alumni.purdue.edu.

Lastly, we would like to make you aware of a contest that we are running. We have divided the nation into several groups, Region 1 and 2, 3 and 4, 5 and 6, 7 and 8, and 9, 10, and 11. The section in each of the groups with the highest percentage of actives attending convention will receive a prize at the awards banquet. So keep up the registering and encouraging of all the brothers you know.

Remember the deadline for registering at the standard convention rate is November 15^th, please encourage all the brothers in your area to register for convention by this date, so that they can receive this rate. Please send this message anyone you know who may be interested at all in attending Nationals and see you at convention!

In Leadership, Friendship, and Service,
