Membership Slam II (and two-and-a-half)
The winner(s) of the original Membership Slam were announced at the SlamMasters' meeting in Chicago. It's a tie! With 80 membership each, the prize will be split between Worcester, MA and Ann Arbor, MI. Each Slam will receive one free hotel room at NPS 2003, $300 in travel money, four all events passes to NPS 2003, their venue highlighted on this website, a poetryslam.com e-mail address, (half) a trophy, four SlamAmerica CDs and four NPS 2002 Anthologies.
Says Bill MacMillan, SlamMaster for the Worcester scene, "If Worcester and Ann Arbor, with a combined population of about 300,000 can do this, I challenge the "big" cities to show us what can be done in the major markets. Bring it on, Big Shots!" Membership Slam II has already begun. All memberships credited to your venue from April 2, 2003 until June 30, 2004 will receive a similar prize for NPS 2004 in St. Louis, MO. Get that membership drive going.
And to sweeten the pot just a little, and create a jump start on this drive, PSI is offering a new mini-drive incentive. The Poetry Slam that gathers the most memberships between April 2, 2003 and June 30, 2003 will get a full refund of its NPS Application fee for THIS year, and those memberships will also count toward the grand prize for NPS 2004 as well.
And just to make it interesting, both Ann Arbor and Worcester are ineligible for these prizes.
Minneapolis, here's your chance. Delray Beach, FL, you finished fourth in the last go-round. Bring it on!
Hey, LA, San Francisco, New York. Where's all your big market advantage?
PSI is growing, gaining momentum, getting stronger. Get on board. We're taking this grassroots express all the way to the end of the line!
And don't forget, we are extending the GrantBack benefit as well. That means that 10% of all membership dues raised in support of a local Poetry Slam's efforts in this membership drive will be credited back to the local scene for use in any of the "essential business" of PSI. Your SlamMaster can use those funds to pay for certification or NPS application, or use it for a portion of local advertising in support of PSI and the local Poetry Slam. Good for you, good for PSI and good for the local Poetry Slam. Can't imagine a better way to do some great good. Join today.
