You
won’t want to miss being part of this Annual
event. We’ve heard from whitewater clubs from
throughout the Southeast that they will join us again in 2001 for Tennessee
Paddle. People in the Southeast love the Obed Wild &
Scenic River and many of them hold clubs events and schools
there. These clubs are helping us with promotion
activities.
We've gotten wonderful support from the Knoxville, Oak Ridge and Cumberland Plateau communities. The Festival will be a great opportunity to present your products and services to thousands of people who love the outdoors. Don't just think of "paddling" stuff as this will be spring in Tennessee and folks will be itching to plan for the season.
Plan to be a part of the Festival, get your banner
ad or logo on this web site. We'll be
glad to work with you on your sponsorship. Donate something
related for the Festival silent auction and we'll list
you as a contributor like above! Click
here to view a map of the Festival Site.
We invite potential sponsors to contact us.
Write to our Sponsorship Team Leader Tim
Mahoney. Be part of the sponsors group who’ll be helping
us with this “put-in” event for the Obed!
If you have a product(s) or
service you'd like to donate for the silent auction at the
Festival, please contact
us and we'll tell you how to get it to us. We'll list you
as a "contributor".
