to keep the cost of participation low or complimentary. This is a wonderful way for local busi-
nesses and organizations to give back to the community. You are welcome to be as involved in
the program as you like - some sponsors have been present during a public skate to engage with
the participants and even offer free products or gifts, while others have simply had their logo on
our posters.
Current sponsorship opportuities may include:
* commuity public skate
* open-ice stick & puck
* community programs & events such as summer camps, school break & holiday camps
Sponsorship Benefits:
* brand recognition on all social media platforms, our website and community newsletters
