Clint,
You are a wise person and understand this aspect very well. You are correct, the news media did not come looking for us. Our appointed Public Relations designee made sure all the media outlets were well informed about what we were doing, why we were doing it, where we were going to be, and how long we would be doing it.

... There were 3 local TV stations and 1 local newspaper that visited ...
Don't sell yourself short ... Those media reps didn't just "show up" unexpectedly. Your club obviously has established an excellent relationship with your local media outlets - GREAT JOB!
