We would like to invite you to attend the "Slow Food Campaign" presentations by students enrolled in our capstone advertising and PR campaign classes.
Eight presentations are scheduled for Friday, May 1 from 4-9 p.m. The location is the O'Sullivan Conference Room (JH 303), third floor of Johnston Hall, home of the Diederich College of Communication.
Our clients this semester are Slow Food Wisconsin Southeast (www.slowfoodwise.org) and Growing Power (www.growingpower.org). Martha Davis Kipcak kindly serves as a contact person for both non-profit organizations.
Eight teams of students have developed integrated communication plans using both traditional, non-traditional and social media channels in an attempt to carry out their planned strategies and tactics to meet their campaigns' goals and objectives within the limited budget.
This semester, thanks to Spreenkler network, led by Steve Glynn, we are very fortunate to equip each team with a professional mentor (in some sessions more than one mentor!).

To express our appreciation to the mentors, we will hold the "Mentors Appreciation Day," May 5, 1-3 p.m. Raynor Library, with presentations of winning teams.
In addition to our client Martha Kipcak, three professionals kindly agreed to serve as judges (and read 8 plan books!). They are our own Mary Ingles, Al Krueger (Comet Branding), and Sue Spaight (Jigsaw LLC). By the way, Sue knows campaigns competition well as she was part of a UW-Madison's NSAC team that won national championship several years ago!
If your time permits, please stop between 4-9 p.m. Students would be honored if you would be able to attend their presentations.
Best regards,
