Sponsorship offers a rare opportunity to network with professionals who share a commitment to improving state park operations and visitor experiences.
Why Sponsor?
Sponsorship provides numerous benefits, including:
- Increased Visibility: Maximize your brand’s exposure by showcasing your products and services throughout the conference. Sponsors are encouraged to participate in both onsite and offsite educational sessions, providing valuable insights into state park operations and facilitating formal and informal networking opportunities.
- Support for State Park Values: Sponsoring this event demonstrates your organization’s commitment to supporting the mission and values of state parks and the vital role they play in communities and for visitors.
- Speaking Opportunities: Certain sponsorship levels offer opportunities for your organization to speak and engage with attendees.
- Exhibit Opportunities: Sponsors have the option to exhibit their products or services during designated times and at specific locations throughout the conference. While exhibits provide an excellent opportunity to showcase your offerings, the true value lies in the connections built through networking. Exhibit displays may be set up at the conference hotel or offsite educational venues, depending on the conference schedule.
- Product Placement: Sponsors can place promotional materials, product samples, or branded items in conference bags, on meeting tables, and in other conference materials.
