February 20, 2009 - The 26th Annual Chicago Golf Show will feature Nancy Lopez, Beth Daniel, and many more other golf greats. The show will include booths where one can test the latest golf clubs, find great bargains, and even get free lessons.
“With the U.S.-versus-Europe women's team matches set for this summer at Rich Harvest Farms in Sugar Grove, current and past U.S. Solheim Cup captains Beth Daniel and Nancy Lopez, respectively, will appear at the 26th annual Golf Show.
The two LPGA Hall of Fame members will grace the Chicago Golf Show's Golf Academy Stage, where they are expected to conduct clinics, greet fans, and bring everyone up to date on this year's Solheim Cup. Attendees can even catch a glimpse of the coveted Solheim Cup, currently held by the U.S.
Current captain Beth Daniel will headline Opening Day of the Show on Friday, Feb. 27; Nancy Lopez, who captained the victorious 2005 U.S. Solheim Cup team, will step to the stage on Sunday, March 1. Lopez also is captain of this year's PING Junior Solheim Cup team.
With 33 victories on the LPGA Tour, including one major, Daniel was inducted into the LPGA Hall of Fame in 1999.
Lopez, who won 48 times on the LPGA Tour, including three majors, was voted into the LPGA Hall of Fame in 1987. She is married for former Cincinnati Reds third baseman Ray Knight with whom she has three children” (Chicago Golf Show, 2009).
Also they are marking down admission prices by 10 percent for this year. The cost of admission is $9, except for their promotional day in which it is only $5 to get in. This promotion is in honor of President Abraham Lincoln.
This is a great press release. It starts with the attractions that will truly draw people in and then works its way to the details of the event. By reducing the price by a small amount, they still make enough money, yet they get more people to come which ends up profiting them in the long run. This is a great public relations move.
I cannot see any mistakes or errors in this public relations maneuver. This is a success full event that has been occurring over the past quarter century, so they really have perfected the art of getting people to come to their event. The PR practitioner(s) have had many years to correct errors, try new techniques, and find the best way possible to run the event and publicize it.
Wow. I think something went wrong when you posted this your letters are huge and crammed on top of one another. This golf show sounds like my friends who I think are lame and like golf would be into. I, personally, hate golf. That is a different story. I think bringing in the two LPGA hall of famers is a very good idea. It is a very good publicity to get more people at the show and so they can sell more products and tickets.
