=====Event Participation===== | |||
Sometimes we participate in an event or put one ourselves to raise awareness about our organization. | |||

*A picnic set up at events featuring a lone bike sporting a DingDing.ca sign. | |||
*Buttons including white "DING DING ca" and green "Ring my bell. <small>dingding.ca</small>" | |||
*Plain white business card with a cryptic phrase like "Zero Interest in speed dating," with a dingding.ca mention. | |||
*Plain white T-shirts with a saucy message, and link. I think "Ring my bell" was the most tame, but I don't recall the others. | |||
*I have heard there was supposed to be a sponsored radio ad as well. | |||
