Discussion and Consideration of Opening Day Marketing Efforts for the Recreation Center and Council Action as Needed — K-5

AGENDA ITEM # K-5 AGENDA INFORMATION TIFFIN CITY COUNCIL COMMUNICATION DATE: August 13, 2026 AGENDA ITEM: Discussion and Consideration of Opening Day Marketing Efforts for the Recreation Center and Council Action as Needed ACTION: Motion Recommendation As we approach opening the Rec Center, I am exploring options for promotion and how to get the word out to the public. One option we have is hosting a live edition of The Morning Scramble radio show on z102.9 on-site at the Rec Center on the day of our grand opening (or whatever day we choose). This package also includes thirty 60 second pre-event commercials, airing 6am-midnight, twenty 10 second promotional commercials, ten on-air liners, and a 4 hour broadcast live at the Rec Center. This package is $4,000, but I think it will be worth it and something “fun” that fits the goal of the Recreation Center. I’m also wanting to set aside some dollars for an on-going marketing at the Rec Center, and our Tiffin as a whole. As we grow and expand our events, I think finding ways to get information to new members of the community will be important. I would like to discuss creating a bi-annual Activity Guide, or hiring a firm to do it. deNovo quoted $7,000 for the 1st edition, with following editions being less due to less content and design.
