Marineland and Instant Ocean Sponsor Major Events at MACNA XX

09/30/2008

Marineland® and Instant Ocean® were exhibitors and premier sponsors at The Marine Aquarium Conference of North America (MACNA XX) in Atlanta, Georgia this past September. MACNA is the largest and oldest conference focused on the marine aquarium hobbyist. The Anderson Group worked closely with its clients to organize and coordinate the entire premier sponsorship package.

The premier sponsorship package, which brought the Georgia Aquarium, Marineland® and Instant Ocean® together, included a grant awarded by Instant Ocean to the Georgia Aquarium to allow deserving youth from the Atlanta area the opportunity to attend the Aquarium free of charge and take part in specially designed educational programs. The sponsorship also included signage at the Behind-the-Scenes tour at the Georgia Aquarium and at the MACNA XX award banquet. A main feature at the award banquet was an underwater diver who appeared on stage in an aquarium to have a conversation with the evening's MC, this dialogue was conceived and scripted by The Anderson Group.
