Chalet & Table Sponsorships, $650 - $15,000
Smithfield VA Events is “growing up” and due to the magnitude of running (3) annual events, is in the process of obtaining its own 501 (c) 3. Until then, we are operating under the umbrella of the Smithfield Rotary Club. We are also in the process of re-vamping our sponsorship program to reflect all three of our annual events at one time. Starting with our 2015 events, a complete Annual Sponsorship Packet will go out, and sponsors can plan in advance to participate in one, two or all three events. This new approach will be implemented in September with all of our 2015 Sponsorship Opportunities. Discounts will be provided for companies that commit to more than one event. You do NOT have to be a business to be a sponsor - many times groups of friends go in together to get a chalet or a table.
That being said, this year’s Bacon event sponsorship is being offered as a stand-alone event. The “new way” will begin with all three of our events for 2015.
Smithfield has committed to being our Presenting Sponsor on our trio of first-class events. Our events are popular not only to locals, but the entire Coastal Virginia region, the state, and quite a few cases on Mid-Atlantic basis. For the 2014 Wine & Brew Fest, 60% of our sponsorship dollars are from non-local businesses, and we are thrilled to have many new companies in our portfolio this year. The demographics of our crowds, the quality of our events, and the regional draw of attendees are all attractive to local, regional and national businesses.
