How GNACC can assist.
​​Check with us to plan the date so we don't have any conflicting events.   Give yourself 3-5 weeks to plan the ceremony and to get on the calendars of the people you want to attend. If your new space is still being finished, wait until you're certain when the new space really will be finished before you plan your ribbon cutting. Don't take the contractor's word for it. Many things are out of his control, including when his vendors will actually deliver.  

 Let us know  any officials you want to attend so that we can reach out to them. Having them in attendance makes your business and your news look more important. Make sure there's nothing else going on that day in the town, because that could pull attendees away from your event or it could take up all the parking spaces so people can't get to your event.
You provide the refreshments and we invite the city officials and dignitaries and communicate your event announcement.
