HomeMy WebLinkAbout5.1a St. Paul Saints Community Night Memo
TO: Board of Directors, Cottage Grove Convention and Visitors Bureau
FROM: Julie Prior-Miller, Marketing and Communications Specialist
DATE: February 18, 2022
RE: St. Paul Saints Community Night
Background
New in 2022, the Saints are promoting different techniques to their marketing approach and work
with communities. Kailyn Johnson, a Ticket Sales Executive with the St. Paul Saints, has
presented the Cottage Grove Convention and Visitor’s Bureau with different offerings and ways
to partner together.
Discussion
After reviewing the engagement opportunities offered by the St. Paul Saints, a mid-level
package was negotiated for the CVB which includes:
• In-Park display
• In-Game PA recognition
• Tickets printed with “Presented by Discover Cottage Grove”
• 35 reserved seating tickets
• 30 general admission tickets.
The total investment for the mid-level package is $900 from the CVB budget. The event date
will be June 11th which is a week before Strawberry Fest in Cottage Grove. This date was
considered appropriate to promote Cottage Grove since it is a week before our largest event of
the year.
Recommendation
Approve the St. Paul Saints proposal of the Cottage Grove Community Night on June 11th at
CHS Field for $900.
