EXPO 2002 Offers Advantages To Sponsors

Businesses and organizations are being sought to be Gold Premiere or Silver Premiere sponsors for EXPO 2002.

EXPO is an annual event for organizations that do business in Vance, Granville, Franklin and Warren counties to set up exhibits and show off their products or services. The event will be held Oct. 15 at the Civic Center at Vance-Granville Community College.

About 80 exhibitors participate annually in EXPO. The VGCC Small Business Center, the Henderson-Vance County Chamber of Commerce and the Granville County Chamber of Commerce sponsor the event. These organizations would like businesses or agencies to co-sponsor EXPO 2002 with them.

Two types of sponsorship are available. A Gold Premier sponsorship for $1,000 earns co-sponsor status with the SBC and the chambers. In addition, Gold sponsors are named in all publicity about EXPO, as well as getting an exhibit space and lunch for their exhibit personnel. Silver Premiere sponsorships cost $500 and also get the organization’s name on all publicity, as well as exhibit space and lunch.

Deadline for becoming a Gold Premier or Silver Premiere sponsor of EXPO 2001 is May 15. Anyone interested should call the VGCC Small Business Center at 252-738-3340 or 252-492-2061, ext. 3240, the Henderson-Vance County Chamber of Commerce at 252-438-8414, or the Granville County Chamber of Commerce at 919-693-6125 or 919-528-4994.
