This is very interesting. I am currently planning a mapping weekend in my
home town in august. I thought of trying to get a local newspaper to report
before, during and after the event, but perhaps a radio station is even more
interesting.
How did you manage to sell the idea to the radio station? What where your
arguments? Who did you talk to? Did they use the event in other ways like
competitions for the public? Any detail is interesting.
