Partnerships
Partnership relations are very important to Snowshoe Canada.
These partnerships help us achieve our mission and our goals.
They help us grow the sport and provide the necessary financial support, as well as valuable services and products, that are critical to an organization of this nature.
We value these relationships. We endeavour to nurture them by building trust and giving them the return on investment and community exposure that they expect when they sign with us.
Our goal is to exceed expectations and create an environment where the partner is looking forward to renewing the contract for another year.
Advertising Opportunities:
Like many sport organizations we offer a variety of advertising options that provide an opportunity for corporate partners to get involved with SC. These options include: Title Sponsorship of our championship titles, signage opportunities at our races, opportunities to interact with the athletes during race day, product sampling, participation in awards ceremonies, and post race follow up and surveys.
In addition there are opportunities to get exposure on our web site, e-newsletter and social media platforms.
Prize Money
This is an area of our athlete development is important.
In order to attract the top distance athletes we need to provide prize money as an incentive to compete in this sport. Athlete development takes many forms and prize money for top performance is an important part of it.
Snowshoe Canada puts up a prize purse at the Canadian National Championship. A total prize purse of $1000 is available.
There is also a $1000 prize purse available for the total points winner of the Dion Canada Snowshoe Series.
We would like to keep increasing this prize purse every year.
With this in mind we are looking for partners who would like to contribute to this prize pool. There is no minimum set as yet. We are trying to build this into a significant part of our championship races and would like to talk to various partners who would be interested in contributing.
Contributors would receive recognition for their donations in a fashion similar to advertising.
Memberships
This is another offering that we are providing to our partners.
For a modest annual membership fee various types of partners can become part of Snowshoe Canada.
These would include corporate partners, clubs and associations, retail stores and venues offering snowshoeing as an activity. These various partners will be recognized on our website and will be featured in upcoming e-newsletters and social media posts.
All of these partnership offerings have been put into one partnership package which can be viewed by clicking on the button below. Please feel free to browse through these offerings.
