Why OCA has a $210,000 promotion fund

This is page 27 of the OCA AGM report for 2014. Remember OCA maintains a $210,000 fund to support Promotion and Marketing! Basically they run a website. Please tell me how that markets curling to new people and warrants a $210K fund?
Even supports of OCA must find this appalling!

Publicity and Promotion Report

The OCA website continues to be the primary method with which we communicate with our stakeholders. Our website will be redesigned for the 2014-2015 season to make it more up to date, more accessible and allow for easier navigation. All of the competition entries were received on-line this year. Provincial competition results continue to be the most popular content during the playoff season. We are planning to have real-time scoring available for all games - zones through regions through provincials, in the future.
Moving forward, we will be working closely with the office, as staff take over the creation and distribution of a regular newsletter. Staff will also take over the facebook page, LinkedIn and twitter account. The ED is focusing on vastly improving communications, and moving the majority of the day to day execution of many of the initiatives to the staff is a very positive step.

Many of my hours over the past few months have been spent reviewing and working on our by-laws and governance going forward, as a result, this portfolio was not given the focus it might have had this past season.

Joanne Pomalis
Director of Publicity and Promotion

That is a pretty nice budget but these days would not even cover newpaper or tv/radio ads.

However, it could be used for other activites such as booths at public events etc...

Thumbs up

Sounds like they'll be doing some good stuff over the next few months. The new manager is turning things around.

I will believe it when I see it. It is still the same circle of people and the stories are still the same.

I doubt we will see any kind of a promotion program or any kind of an interest free club support program even though they have $500,000 in that fund and it is growing every year.

Here's hoping I am wrong!
