16th Annual Leadership Breakfast - June 10, 2008 – “Camp Fire USA and the tweenteenillenials”
What are those kids thinkin'?? Ever wondered how much money teens spend these days in the US? Try 1.7 Billion (yes, parents, that's 1.7 Billion.) Did you know they spend real money to buy virtual money to spend in virtual stores to get a discount coupon for a real store? What do they do with all that screen time? How do they use those Facebook and MySpace pages and what should you know about that? What IS their SecondLife avitar up to these days? And, what do they think of you, as parents? Do you need to get out of your helicopter?
The Westin Hotel, downtown Seattle – June 10, 2008
7:00 Meet and Greet
7:30 – 8:30 Breakfast and Program
Bring your friends, bring family, bring co-workers. Don't you think your marketing department/ad agency/ graphic designer/in house firm would be just a little bit intrigued by all this??? Ask them. They should be. Share the link to this webpage.
The breakfast is, of course, complimentary but we will ask for a donation.
The Camp Fire USA Leadership Fund Raising Breakfast was created to broaden the base of financial support for Camp Fire by increasing the number of individual donors and donations and making the public more aware of the remarkable programs and curriculum we offer. The breakfast is an opportunity for individuals who care about youth to learn about the positive impact that Camp Fire programs have on youth development. During the breakfast, guests are asked to financially support these programs.
All proceeds from the breakfast provide funds for youth development programs in areas where Camp Fire programs currently are not available.
More ways to participate:
- Help contribute to the success of the breakfast and host a table of 10 people.
- Invite nine friends and business associates to the breakfast and share information about Camp Fire and the importance of youth development programs with them.
- Join business leaders, Camp Fire corporate sponsors, parents, alumni and friends by attending the Leadership Breakfast.
- Get your company involved! Think about becoming a Corporate Partner in support of this event with us. For a contribution of $2,500, $5,000, $7,500 or $10,000 your company will receive unique recognition benefits (wild applause, splashes of your logo everywhere, groveling, and the right to say, "I was here.". We also have some other more creative sponsorship opportunities available. Let's discuss!
