The Seaside Wine Festival is going to have a big CHEESE PAVILLION. Ah loves me some cheese.

Slapping a "THE" or a different name on an event that has been popular for years isn't marketing. :roll:

I'll be at the fabulous Mountain Film Festival that weekend enjoying one of the best (and affordable) events on 30-A!

Is this the old Taste of 30A? If so, I will boycott. I will not fall for the new name of MountainFilm. :wave:

It is baffling to me that an event 45 days away has such a giant hole in it's marketing plan.
What more do you expect from a group of yahoos who try renaming this place, "The Beach?" I'd say there are some major holes in this entire scheme, and I'd bet that Peter Bos is just trying to get people into his castle on the Destin Harbor.

The website lists Mountainfilm as a Saturday only event.:roll:

another genius marketing tool from THE IDIOTS! :wave:

I am so relieved these people are attempting to raise bed taxes!!! We are in good hands!

Bless their hearts! tasteof the beachfla.com link goes directly to waltonareachamber.com It seems they are trying to plan the food/wine events around the film festival and make it appear to be a "package" event.

Go to the "real" film festival site http://www.mountainfilm.org/tour/sch...atercolor.html

Taste of THE beach or whatever they are trying to call it, should not be confused with the film festival. And I certainly don't believe the airlines are putting all their eggs in this basket to determine the lift into area!

Additionally I just got this email from Seaside offering free tickets to the SeeingRed Wine Festival, which is also the same weekend.

All of these events are separate and organized by different groups. Who knows - sounds like the blind leading the blind, which is unfortunate.

At any rate, I will be down there that weekend for the film festival. I've heard it is way cool and loads of fun!

It was fascinating to contact St Joe to request an interview for a promo to promote this event a few couple of weeks ahead

St Joe turned down the free TV time - amazing in the current economy to see corporations act in such a manner
