This tip sheet contains a number of ways that you can help ARRL promote its 90^th Anniversary throughout the remainder of 2004. By getting involved in one or more of these activities, you'll also be promoting Amateur Radio in the community and gaining added exposure for your club.

1. Use the ARRL 90^th logo on club letterhead and all news releases for the remainder of the year.

2. Use the 90^th Anniversary theme during hamfests and conventions on brochures, programs, booth signage, etc.

3. Use ARRL's 90^th during Field Day and other activities your club plans to be involved with this year.

4. Refer to the backgrounders on the PR pages if a reporter wants more information on Amateur Radio. They cover the important basics, including ham radio's role during emergencies.

5. Start up a licensing class in honor of the 90^th and alert the press. Post colorful notices on bulletin boards in prominent places such as libraries, supermarkets, radio/electronics stores, bookstores and your local community center.

6. Contact your local library and offer to set up an informational display on Amateur Radio.

7. Call local broadcast radio talk shows and volunteer to be a guest. The relevance of ham radio in today's wireless world would be a great topic to propose.

9. Invite your mayor or other local official to your club's next public event or emergency communications exercise, and don't forget to invite the press.
