Organizing high quality events for labor unions to celebrate with.

Image of IBEW Local 668 100th Anniversary logoBMA planned, managed and implemented the 100th Anniversary Celebration for the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers Local 668 in Lafayette, Indiana.

Our Special Events Department staff guided the local every step of the way, from square one to the final dance the night of the June 5, 2010 party, which was attended by more than 400 members, retirees, dignitaries and guests.

Union event production

BMA handled all event branding, logistics and production of the event, which was held in the ballrooms at the Purdue University Memorial Union: event logo, event timelines, site surveys, hotel accommodations, invitations, RSVP tracking, set-up and dismantling, caterers, floor plan design, seating charts, venue security and media relations coordination.

Supporting union print shops

BMA also produced a special Commemorative Program Book, complete with the full history of the local. This included distributing a sponsorship rate card, selling advertisements, researching and writing the 100-Year history and printing the program.

The evening of the event, BMA transformed the Memorial Union into a grand gala, and orchestrated all of the event ceremonies, speakers, meal service and entertainment – making sure all staging, lighting, video projection, signage, scenery and backdrops were specific to 668's 100th Anniversary.
