After chatting with Nathan Polsky and Jodi Cole separately about this event, I wanted to open up discussion before possibly making a motions. Planoballoonfest.org is what we were looking at. The dates are Sept 19-22 and would be a great opportunity to get the party and candidates (especially POTUS,VPOTUS, and other statewide candidates as well as those who may have voters in the area) in front of over 100,000+ people. It is a very family friendly atmosphere and I know that Collin, Denton, and Dallas county folks have volunteered there before. This is something that could get LPTexas some great marketing opportunities and if we have candidates possibly some media coverage.
There are several options that could be available to us like just a booth or 2, or there are sponsor packages. The one I was looking at (Polsky is double checking that it fits in the events rules) was the Marketing level sponsorship which is $3500 and includes a booth with electricity, listing on the website sponsor page, our branding included on the main stage screen promotions, extra signage at the festival, free registration for corporate branded hot air balloon. Please look at the website and let’s discuss.
