In the past, they put signs up in the local shops (most shops did this), tried to get the local dealers to promote to their customers (which they don't always want to do - afraid they are sending their customers to competitors), placed an ad in a local kayak magazine, did a Groupon type thing, and had an online presence (FB page, plus getting other FB pages to promote the event on their pages). I can improve on these some (get signs up earlier, better messaging, etc.).
They considered placing ads in local papers, but this starts getting into politics. There are a few regional magazines for the area - the one that makes the most sense is the one closest to the location, but this would in effect be supporting the one dealer in that area, and be of less value to the other dealers who are outside of the range.
Looking for other ideas that I may not be considering just yet. Thanks.
