Conference registration materials are available online at http://www.iscma.org. Pick up promotion display labels, register for the golf outing or 5k fun run/walk, and get the skinny on the program.

Time has run out reserve a room at the Nittany Lion Inn. You can be placed on a waiting list by calling them at 814-865-8500.

Other recommendations for lodging in State College are The Penn Stater (1-800-233-7505, http://bit.ly/qUB8Db), The Days Inn (814-238-8454, http://bit.ly/nXZLKw), and The Ramada Inn (814-238-3001, http://bit.ly/o510bb). All hotels had rooms available as of Sept. 21.

In other I-SCMA news, Citation Chair Dan Slep is on the lookout for worthy carriers to recognize at the conference. Guidelines are available at http://iscma.org/carrier-recognition/vt-curtis-award/.

For the promotion contest, while planning the conference, we began talking about how we could add even more value to our program.

Many circulation professionals have found innovative ways to grow circulation, recognize carriers, and promote their newspaper's products by browsing our annual promotion display competition. But as valuable as the boards are, they are a static way to present the information.

So, with your help, we're going to energize the promotion displays by giving you and your team a chance to showcase your best promotion display entry live at the conference.

On the afternoon of the first day of the conference, we'll extend our usual dessert with the advertisers for these brief presentations in the promotion display room. Select your best entry, prepare some brief comments to highlight it's best features, and we'll put you in the spotlight.

Each newspaper which participates will receive two additional entries in our $250 prize drawing. Participation will not be factored into determining category prize winners or the recipient of the L. Scott Olsen award.

Please contact Promotion Display Chair Charles Love - lovec@washpost.com - before the conference, or on Monday, Oct. 10 when you set up your boards, and we'll put you on the program.

See you in State College!
