August 5, 2011
(State College, PA) — Affinity Connection has finalized a new no-cost value-added service to drive member engagement by working with CollegeTownNetwork.com. The partnership joins Affinity Connection, the leader in alumni interest group community-building, with CollegeTownNetwork.com, the only site focused on promoting tourism in the top 61 college towns nationwide.
CollegeTownNetwork.com is a “Fun Hub” for 61 U.S. college towns including such hot spots as State College, PA, Athens, GA, and Chapel Hill, NC. College towns are home to a wide array of family enjoyment. Now, Affinity Connection can tap into the local scene of each town and provide university alumni groups a way to reengage at the newest and hottest spots around town. Plus, chapters have the opportunity to contact CollegeTownNetwork.com to help them plan reunions and fun for groups of all sizes.
Through this partnership, Affinity Connection will offer college and university alumni group chapters the opportunity to provide their members with exclusive discounts on lodging, restaurants and numerous activities in their respective college towns. Through CollegeTownNetwork.com, alumni can enjoy discounts and free concierge-style services, such as restaurant group seating special offerings and discounts, while visiting town for reunions, football weekends or other alumni activities.
"It has long been my goal to help alumni reconnect where they built their memories. Now, with our new no-cost service, they will get exclusive discounts and concierge style service that will encourage them and their families to take a trip back to renew their love for their college town and reconnect with old friends,” said Greg Woodman, CEO of Affinity Connection. "Being knowledge centers, college towns are the future economic drivers of our country. Where else can you enjoy a safe small town atmosphere mixed with unique lodging, amazing locally-owned restaurants, plus sporting events and all kinds of cultural activities that are comparable to a big city?"
Affinity Connection provides member-based organizations with very affordable and efficient database management, communication tools, gift processing, and process control to help them generate a high level of member engagement and create a culture of contribution and long-term success.
