SSGG 2010 Vendor & Sponsor Registration

Vendors, this is a great chance for you to market your businesses!  You can participate even if you are unable to attend the Sweet Sugar Gliders Gathering.  We have several different levels of what we call "sponsorship", which get you advertising space and vending space.

Non-vendors can sponsor SSGG as well.  Sponsorship dollars will be used to help fund the event, prizes, goody bags, and toy-making supplies for Toy Time.  More sponsors = more fun and free goodies for everyone at the event.  We will also accept donations for prizes and raffle drawings.

Here is a description of the different levels of sponsorship:

• $10 - Level 1
  
  • 50-word (text-only) dedication, memorial, or advertisement in event handout and on our event website (please put the text of your ad in your order comments upon checkout)

• You do not have to be attending the SSGG event to sponsor the event.
• Your company does not have to be sugar glider specific in order for you to sponsor our event and get an advertisement in our handouts.
• You do not have to have a business in order to sponsor the SSGG event (although this is a great advertising opportunity if you do).  Other examples might include a memorial to a loved one (human or pet) or a thanks to someone in the glider community who has been of help to you.
• You are responsible for creating your own memorial/dedication/advertisement/banner and emailing it to us.  Please have the file to us by September 31st.

• If you are planning to have a vending or exhibit table at this event and your products/focus is not sugar glider specific, please contact us first for permission to vend.
• Please send us a list of products you intend to vend and any propaganda you are wanting to pass out, so we can approve them.  We are not going to be very strict about what you can and cannot sell or promote.  However, we would like everything to be safe and somewhat glider related.  We also will not allow selling of animals during vending time.  If you have pre-screened a buyer & pre-arranged a sale prior to the event, that is fine.
• You are responsible for making sure that your items are safe for their intended use.  We have the right to refuse sale of any product we believe to be unsafe or inappropriate, however it is not our responsibility to police every item that you sell.  Sweet Sugar Gliders will not be held liable for any issues someone may have with products that you sell at this event.  We expect you to take care of any customer complaints, questions, etc.
• We have the right to refuse any sponsor or vendor at our own discretion.  If we choose to decline your sponsor/vendor registration, a refund will be issued to you.

You can sponsor the event and/or sign up to be a vendor on this page. 

Prizes and Raffles

This is not required, but we would like to encourage all of our vendors to donate a gift or gifts to use as prizes and raffle drawings.  Please contact us to find out where to send your donated items.  Donations can be big or small.  Please attach your company information, so we can tell everyone where the gifts came from.  Prize and raffle donations received by September 15th will be posted on our website.  If you prefer to bring your donation with you, please contact us to let us know what you will be bringing.  We would also like to encourage each vendor to bring one gift basket for a drawing to be held during vending time.  This will encourage all attendees to stop by your vending table, to see if they won and check out your products.
