Sponsors
The Cyclones support ourselves through membership dues, limited fundraising, and sponsorship. Our valued sponsors are businesses and individuals, mostly local, who support the team not just in spirit but financially, further linking the Cyclones to the community and economy around us. These sponsors demonstrate their support for community by supporting the Cyclones, and we in turn promote them. Most basically, that promotion happens on our team tee shirts and right here, on our website, displaying sponsor names and/or logos, with higher levels of sponsorship being displayed more prominently.
But we do much more than that for our sponsors: if you are on our team, we will be on yours. Our goals are to provide real value to sponsors and to maximize mutual benefit from the relationship. Our standard sponsorship tiers are below, but we are, of course, willing to work with prospective partners. Have an idea that isn't covered below? Want to provide equipment or goods, for us to use, sell, or raffle? Prefer to show your generosity in other ways, such as pledging for our swimmers in their Giving Back activities? No problem. Please, contact us for more information.
