EVENTS AND COMING ATTRACTIONS:

Save the dates! NYPA Spring Convention and Trade Show – March 30th and 31st

Bigger and Better than ever! NYPA’s spring convention – March 30th and 31st at the Gideon Putnam Hotel and Conference Center in beautiful Saratoga Springs. Newspapers participating in NYSCAN can take advantage of the amazing BUY ONE, GET ONE FREE registration packages.

Training is important to professionals in all fields – pros don’t just get good and stay good – top notch performance requires on-going training. Take advantage of this incredible training and networking opportunity – this is the largest newspaper training conference in the country!

In addition, 24 vendors will exhibit at the trade show – take time in this convenient, out-of-office setting to see the latest software, hardware, content management systems, printers and more.

Please join us in Saratoga; if you don’t think it’s worth your investment, we’ll refund your registration fee!

Publishers’ Roundtables/District Meetings

NYPA Board President, Garry Pierre Pierre, NYPS Board President Jim Bilinski, and NYPA/NYPS Executive Director, Michelle Rea cordially invite you to join us for what promises to be an informative and energizing series of conversations.

If you have never participated in an NYPA Publishers’ Roundtable, you’re in for a treat. The meetings have no agenda – they simply provide an opportunity to share your best ideas, hear what your colleagues are doing, discuss solutions to challenges, and exchange ideas for revenue growth, cost savings, digital business development, software solutions, personnel issues, postal problems, and more.

There is no charge to attend, we simply ask that you RSVP so that we’ll have an accurate count for lunch. The meetings will begin at 10:30 am, include lunch, and wrap up shortly after lunch.

We’d love to see, and look forward to the opportunity to tell you about NYPS’ new digital business development strategy (developed to sell more advertising onto your newspaper’s website), and to hear what’s happening in your part of the State.
