Face-to-Face with The Bay of Plenty Steamers




Face-to-Face with The Bay of Plenty Steamers At Bayfair Shopping Centre


Players from the Bay of Plenty Steamers will be at Bayfair Shopping Centre next week to meet and greet fans, and thank them for their steadfast support season after season.

With their eyes firmly set on the 2010 ITM Cup, the Bay of Plenty Steamers turn their attention to Bayfair Shopping Centre for a signing evening on Thursday 12 August, from 7pm to 8pm.

This is your chance to get up close and personal with 13 Bay of Plenty Steamers stars, including Captain Colin Burke, Lance MacDonald and Jason Hona. The players will be signing free posters that are available from the Bayfair Shopping Centre Information Desk from Friday 6 August onwards, while stocks last.

Getting out in the community is an important part of the Steamers’ schedule. The team is looking forward to meeting its supporters first-hand and generating interest.

Bay of Plenty Steamers Sales and Marketing Executive Warren Kibur says, “Meet and greets are fantastic. Bayfair Shopping Centre is helping the team give back personally and opportunities like this generate great enthusiasm among players and supporters alike. These occasions are our way of saying thank you.”

Bayfair Shopping Centre Marketing Manager Nina Rivett says, “Bayfair is proud to support the Bay of Plenty Steamers and help bring them closer to our community. It is a pleasure to be associated with the team.”

From Thursday 12 August to Sunday 22 August, Bay of Plenty Steamers fans will be given the chance to win two signed Bay of Plenty Steamers jerseys. Anyone that purchases a snack or meal from participating retailers at Bayfair can enter the draw to win one of the two jerseys.

In addition, if a shopper discovers a rugby ball sticker on a soft drink purchased from the same retailer, he or she has won two tickets to see the Bay of Plenty Steamers vs. Southland game at 2.35pm on Saturday 16 October at Baypark, Mount Maunganui.
