Where would we be without our sponsors?

Where would the Albert D. Downs Wild Game Feast be without its sponsors? We'd probably in the woods somewhere, hunting down a deer in off-season and begging for someone to loan us a commercial-sized grill for a few hours. (Who knows what kinds of laws we'd be breaking without that insurance, too. Sean Ryan shutters at the thought.)

Thankfully, local non-profits and Rotary projects will be able to rely on the Wild Game Feast again in 2011, thanks to our generous sponsors! The Wild Game Feast committee has received commitments for tens of thousands of dollars for the benefit of those organizations and projects the DeLand Breakfast Rotary supports.

Special thanks to the following club members who joined me secure vital WGF sponsorships:

Deric Kaiser
Derek Mears
Sean Ryan
Steve Sally
Terry Williams
  
Special thanks to Quality Brands, our title sponsor, who will be providing our adult beverages.

TD Bank, "America's Most Convenient Bank," has generously stepped up to fully sponsor our April 27 VIP / Sponsor Event at the Athens Theatre with at $5,000 gift. Progress Energy has come through again this year with a $5,000 gift, too. And, all of our $5,000 - $1,500 sponsors are listed to the right.

In addition, we have commitments from 33 local businesses and individuals who have committed $300 - $500 to support the event.

Please show your support of our sponsors by sharing the message of their philanthropy
and using their services.
  
Thank you for continuing to spread the word about the Wild Game Feast, selling your feast tickets, hocking raffle tickets, and encouraging others to participate in our 20th anniversary event. 

Sincerely,
Mark
