Sponsorship Form
Dear Potential Sponsor,
As spring is nearing and the days are getting longer, the race is on to plan, organize and host the 13th Annual ABRA Finals in Camrose. We decided that from the inception of our association we would operate on a non-profit basis. This means we must raise our money in order to provide awards for our top competitors from Pee Wee to Open members. What better way to accomplish this than to invite friends and businesses to partner with us as our continued or new sponsors. You may ask...”what is in it for me?”�Well, all levels of sponsorship are tax deductible and you not only receive advertisement at our Finals, in our association newspaper, on-line at our website but our members are encouraged to support our sponsors by choosing them when deciding who to do their business with. When you become a sponsor for the ABRA, you are supporting a family focused and competitive organization which you can be proud to be affiliated with. In addition to our sponsorship brochure details, we are willing to promote the following opportunities on our web-site and newspaper:
Hi-Point Sponsors��will receive a “home page banner with their logo” on our web-site and in our newspaper along with allotted space for promotion or sales of their product or service. Sponsor can have a Champion jacket patch space
(patch must be provided).
Platinum Sponsors��will receive space on our web-site for promotion or sales of their product or service. Their logo will be represented on our web-site home page and in our newspaper.
Gold Sponsors��will have their logo represented on our web-site home page and in our newspaper.
Thank you for your time and support of the ABRA. If you have any questions about your sponsorship, please contact
Angela @ 780-490-8539 or e-mail @ abrapublicrelations@hotmail.com. The sooner we receive your commitment, the more value you will receive in advertising. You are welcome to use this form to send in your sponsorship or an invoice can be requested at your convenience. We look forward to working with you and appreciate your comments.
All Sponsorships are Tax Deductible (a receipt will be issued)
“Please include a business card”
