Hunting Season is Soon Approaching The River Heights Chamber will be "on the hunt" for business people who want to increase their profitability through the Chamber. Be a part of our hunting party! Our hunting season Kick-off Celebration will take place on November 6th at the Tandem Printing CoffeeNet. "Hunting" will run Monday, November 10th and go through Wednesday, November 19th. On these 8 work days, we will announce the "deal of the day" for any new member joining the Chamber. This deal may include discounts, complimentary advertising and passes to upcoming events. The deal will only be good for the day it's announced!
How can you become a sponsor on the hunt?
For $75 you can sponsor one day which includes:
- Your logo and/or staff hunting party photo (your staff can put on your (or our) hunting gear and take a commemorative photo) will be included in an email to all the primary representatives of the Chamber announcing the "Deal of the Day"
- Your company logo and company link will be on the Chamber's website
- You will have an opportunity to promote your company at the kick-off and hunting celebrations
- The "Deal of the Day" will be randomly selected from a pool of offerings through a drawing.
- There are only 8 opportunities to sponsor. To sponsor one of the remaining hunt days, email [email protected] by Wednesday, October 22. Don't be a hunting widow/widower, join the hunting party!
Every hunter who recruits a new member will receive $50 in cash awarded at the wrap up gathering at the Clarion Hotel on November 20th.
