We're working on the details for Island Bay Day 2010. The date for it will be Saturday October 9th 2010 and it will be held at the same location as last yera - The Chesapeake Bay Environmental Center (CBEC) in Grasonville.
Island Bay Day has become more of a music festival than anything else, so we will be working on ways to beef up the music side and making that the primary focus for 2010.
Vendors for this year should be only music related and rock 'n roll related sellers. Kids stuff will be art related, as the face painter was a huge hit last year.
We will begin the task of booking bands soon and this year we are hoping to secure a national act as a headliner. Last year we had 14 bands playing non-stop on side by side stages. This year the set-up will be the same, but we are looking at having 10 bands instead of 14 so that the sets can be longer. This also depends on the headliner.
We will need sponsors to step up again this year and we have a few underwrighters on board already. Any sponsor that comes on board before March 2010 will get fantastic exposure on Kent Island Online, The Annapolis Site, and all Island Bay Day web and ad related output. They will also be included on our radio advertisements that will air on at least two local radio stations this year. This deal is only for sponsors who pledge at least $1500 before March 1, 2010. We are limiting this because I can only realistically fit a few sponsors with their information on the radio ads. Radio ads for Island Bay Day 2010 will begin airing September 1, 2010 and will flood the airwaves! Sponsor Island Bay Day 2010 and tie yourself to the areas premier charity event! For $1500 you will receive well over $4000 worth of advertising that will completely saturate the area in web, print, cable TV, and radio.
We're looking forward to seeing everybody again at Island Bay Day 2010! Help us spread the word and keep chcking back for more information!
