Retaining Active-Duty Attendance When Events are Held Off-Base by At-Large Chapter

When events become too large to hold on a base, some ideas on how to retain active duty attendance were brainstormed as follows: ¿Provide shuttle buses between the event venue and the base ¿Request the speaker to advertise to his employees ¿Ensure the CIO designates the event acceptable to attend, and designates the venue as the workplace for the day ¿Advertise the event as a professional development event ¿Have a sponsorship program with half the chairs on those tables free for active military attendees ¿Invite the CIO, CTO etc. to speak and encourage their employees to attend ¿Create an award for military and civilian government and present it at chapter events (Middle Georgia Chapter is already doing this) ¿Extend a discounted rate to retired military in the area not currently employed by large companies

Working with Exposition Contractors by Vandenberg-Central Coast Chapter

Worked out a deal with a tech expo contractor to provide a donation back to our AFCEA chapter from the next tech expo. I had done this at my last base, and recently finalized an agreement to get money per exhibitor. Min work for the chapter, we get a tech expo, and we get money into our scholarship fund.

Web surveys seem to draw in candid remarks because they can be anonymous.

Free Attendance to Chapter Luncheons by North Carolina Chapter

Our chapter luncheons are free to attendees, although attendance is limited to the first 60 to RSVP. We fund each luncheon with a $1K corporate sponsorship. This makes the logistics of hosting a luncheon much easier, as we don't have to collect funds from each attendee as they RSVP or at the door. This has worked very well for our chapter.
