Subject: Promoting the 93rd National Convention via Facebook
Team:
Our Magazine Division at The American Legion National Headquarters has designed a national convention Facebook page to get people excited about going to Minneapolis. A description of the page is as follows:
The
American Legion's 93rd National Convention in Minneapolis Facebook page is
designed to allow American Legion members to share information about
Minneapolis, the site of this year’s national convention, and interact
with other Legionnaires who plan on attending the national convention. Share
with us your favorite local spots in the Minneapolis area– dining,
entertainment, historical or otherwise. Give us an insider’s perspective
of the Land of 10,000 Lakes. This page will also provide pertinent information
about the national convention, such as hotel assignments, airfare discounts,
and tourist attractions, as well as valuable links, an updated convention
calendar, and whatever other items Legion members want to post regarding
Minneapolis and this year’s national convention.
And once the convention is underway, the page will be a chance for convention
goers to share their experiences in Minneapolis with fellow Legionnaires,
whether it’s uploading a parade photo, checking in at an area restaurant
or posting a link to a newly discovered local treasure.
Please share the link below with any and all in order to build excitement for the 93rd National Convention in Minneapolis!
PS….. If you are currently not a Facebook user, you will need to sign up at www.facebook.com. Happy Facebooking and promoting our national convention!
