3rd Annual Gas City Area Chamber Golf Outing

Friday, July 14, 2006
Club Run @ Walnut Creek Golf Course

 REGISTRATION 

The 3rd Annual Gas City Area Chamber Golf Outing will be Friday, July 14, 2006. Your Chamber anticipates raising over $3,000, which will help support the many Chamber-sponsored activities through the year that directly and indirectly benefit the businesses in our community.

On behalf of this year's Chamber Golf Outing Committee, I ask for your participation in two ways:

  1. Golf Registration entry (yourself or a four-person team); and/or
  2. Business sponsorship.

A business can sponsor the outing in several ways:

  • Hole-In-One Sponsor = opportunity to display a vehicle, lawn equipment, jewelry, etc. at the golf course; your company or organization's name will be displayed on the Hole-In-One hole during the outing. ($200 Sponsor plus prize worth $2,500 - $20,000 value, incl. National Hole-In-One Association insurance cost).
     
  • Contest Hole Sponsors = provide Longest Drive & Closest to the Pin contest hole sponsor and prizes; your company or organization's name will be displayed at the contest Tee station during the outing ($100 Hole Sponsor plus prize worth $75 -100 value). Sponsors may staff the hole with employees to meet and greet golfers during outing.
     
  • Hole Sponsors = your company or organization's name will be displayed on the Tee station and/or the Green sponsorship during the outing. ($100 per Hole Sponsor location) Sponsors may staff the hole with employees to meet and greet golfers during outing.
     
  • Oasis Beverage Sponsors = your company or organization's name will be displayed at the 1st Hole and on the Oasis golf carts during the outing ($100 Sponsor).
     
  • Give-a-way Sponsor = provide miscellaneous business give-a-way items to be distributed to each golfer.
     
  • All sponsors will be listed in the press releases before and after the event.
     
  • Your company or organization will be highlighted as an outing sponsor in the Chamber Notes Newsletter at www.GasCity.com.

Sponsoring is a relatively inexpensive, but a very effective, way to promote your business to the community and to your fellow Chamber Members.

In conclusion, I want to THANK YOU again for your support as a member of the Gas City Area Chamber of Commerce. Without faithful members such as you, we would not have the successful community that we all enjoy today. A member of our planning committee will follow up on your experience with a phone call within the next few weeks.

If you have any questions, please contact Dennis Banks at (765) 673-6460 or the Chamber office at (765) 674-7545. Thank You! Join us for an afternoon of sun, fun, and networking with community business. See you on July 14th.
