Sponsorships and Donations
First, we want to thank all of our past vendors whose sponsorships have enabled this event to be affordable for all.
We have sold out this popular network event the past three years so let’s make it a four-peat and continue the momentum. The IIA Chicago Chapter is excited to continue its successful partnership with the prestigious Ruffled Feathers Golf Club as host for this year's event on Monday, June 26, 2017. The 2017 program represents a great opportunity for the Chicago Chapter to provide its members a tremendous experience at a Chicago area premier rated golf course & facility at a reasonable price for all levels of participation: sponsors, golfers, networking and volunteers!
We are anticipating another sell-out for the golf tournament and sponsorships this year, in addition to exceeding over 50 companies being represented. All commitments are recorded on a first come first paid basis.
This is a great opportunity to spend an entire day with prospective and current clients by the purchase of foursomes. In addition, sponsorships of golf holes and contests provide an opportunity to greet and meet every golfer at your sponsored hole. Other sponsorship opportunities provides additional exposure to your brand throughout the event.
Your continued support is greatly appreciated.
