SensBlogCon Press Release

With the SBC 08 less than a week away, I will be sending out a press release to some Ottawa media outlets in hopes of drumming up some support for our little event.

Maybe a preview coming to 24 Hours or Metro? Let's hope there's isn't an intriguing story about tomatoes or Paris Hilton in the next couple days!

SensBlogCon – The Ottawa Senators Bloggers conference 2008

The online voices of the Ottawa Senators meet for the first time.

Saturday, June 21 2008 -- 8pm

MacLaren’s sports bar -- 310 Elgin st. Ottawa, Ontario

What:

Following the 2008 NHL draft, the first ever meeting of the Ottawa Senators fan-managed websites will take place at MacLaren’s sports bar on Elgin June 21^st at 8pm.

These websites serve as alternative voices to the mainstream sports coverage. Average fans have taken to the internet to get their own views on NHL hockey to their fellow NHL followers. Many of these websites have been in operation for years and have become a primary source of news and opinions about the Senators.

Who:

Writers from the top independent blogs covering the NHL’s Ottawa Senators will be in attendance. These websites receive tens of thousands of hits monthly, and attract a loyal following of readers, commentors, fans and detractors.

Bloggers from Sens Army Blog (www.sensarmy.blogspot.com);

Sens Underground Podcast (www.sensunderground.com);

Scarlett Ice (www.scarlettice.blogspot.com);

The Battle of Ontario (www.battleofontario.blogspot.com);

...will all be in attendance.

The event is open to all Ottawa Senators bloggers and fanatics.
