Mark your calendars for January 17th.

Julia Gorzka from BrandTampa left a comment response to one of our open threads a few weeks ago pertaining to the idea of a blogger bash in the new year:

Happy to comment that I think a blogger bash is a fabuloso idea. We’ve got a tweet-up happening at MOSI from 6-9pm on Sat Jan 17th. MOSI is also launching a virtual ambassadors program offering swag for all interested Tampa Bay bloggers. RSVP is on http://www.meetup.com/tampabloggers/

OOH! Swag! Tell me more! Tell me more!

MOSI is opening their doors to us for a special after-hours party at the museum! We’ll even have special access to the top of the IMAX dome! You’ll have an exclusive 8-story high, 360 degree view of Tampa.

* Streaming live tweets
* Cash Bar
* Live DJ, for our musical enjoyment
* MOSI IMAX dome rooftop access

*** MOSI Announcing Virtual Amassadors (VA) Program ***
MOSI will be asking for our help and ideas to get their social groove on. All interested tweeple will be invited to become Virtual Amassadors (VA) and receive MOSI swag worth over $150 including:

* One year free membership to the museum
* Free ticket to every IMAX film opening from January – June 2009 (excluding special engagements)
* Free ticket to Body Worlds 3 and the Story of the Heart opening January 22, 2009 – The Original Exhibit of Real Human Bodies.

In return, MOSI is simply asking you for a 6 month commitment in helping raise community awareness online about the museum, Body Worlds exhibit, IMAX, and other MOSI offerings. Are you ready to help spread the word about the museum in our social media world? We’ll be announcing additional details on the program at the event!

This is a monumental approach and we’re excited MOSI has chosen our TampaBloggers.com’s TweetUp group! So spread the word!
