Looking for Local Business Sponsors
In addition, they are looking for local businesses to sponsor the event. Businesses can become sponsors by paying a small fee which covers the costs of swag bags that will hold business cards, brochures, or samples and are given out at the event. $30 covers placement in 100 swag bags. Interested businesses can contact LeeAnna and Christine for more information and register on the event website.
