SGPA MEMBERS:

I am sure that everyone is busy preparing for NQC so this will be our final message. I
provided information regarding “All Access” passes sometime back.

Thursday, September 17th - 8:30 am - SGPA Showcase
-in the Coronet Room of the Crowne Plaza Hotel (formerly Executive West)

We really need for you to attend this showcase. Our showcase is down by more than 30% and the reason is due to very few promoters attending last year - and the word got around. These artists pay SGPA to be given the opportunity to showcase their talent and it is our duty to listen. We use these funds to provide benefits such as your May hotel accommodations and Maxwell House dinner and our breakfast at NQC, so we trust you have made arrangements to attend the Showcase and the Breakfast.

Friday, September 18th - 8:30 am - Promoters Breakfast
-you will need to drop by the SGPA Booth 628-630 to pick up your personal name tag before Friday morning in order to enter.

Friday, September 18th - 1:30 pm SGPA Business Meeting
--in the Coronet Room of the Crowne Plaza Hotel, (formerly Executive West)

We are only having three events this year in order to give you more time at NQC, so please make every effort to attend each event.

We are looking forward to seeing everyone in Louisville. United We Stand!

Jim Hefner
