BACK
TO THE
FUTURE
AN INVITATION FROM THE PRESIDENT Dear Friend, We are pleased and excited to present to you our Annual Conference Sponsorship Package for 2011. This year we will return to the Amway Grand Plaza Hotel in Grand Rapids – where last year we experienced record setting attendance. We hope you will join us as we acknowledge our member missions and hard work, while providing new opportunities to shape the future of aging services in Michigan. We are truly experiencing a time of transformation. To help us, we especially need the energy and expertise of our many business partners to inform our planning. This year’s conference event will include discussions that spring from our work with the new Administration and from the significant volume of new federal and state legislation that will affect every Michigan senior and aging service provider. This opportunity also allows you to enhance your company’s exposure to over 500 Aging Services of Michigan members by becoming an exhibitor and sponsor. Enclosed you will find a marketing guide highlighting a variety of sponsorship opportunities. If you would like to discuss any of the enclosed materials, please contact me at (517) 323-3687. Best Regards,
David E. Herbel President and CEO
