FESTIVAL OF THE GRAPE SPONSORSHIP |
|
Powhatan's Festival of the Grape exists in a large part to generous sponsors who help to make this exceptional day in our county come to fruition.
We are proud to announce that we have five amazing Platinum Sponsors this year:
Central Virginia Bank, Channel 12, Colony Construction, Lite 98 and Powhatan Today. Thank you to each of you for your significant contributions - without businesses like you,
the festival, which brings up to 6000 visitors to our county, would not be possible.
We understand that this year sponsorships might be more challenging in years past,
so we are offering a larger range of opportunities.
For more information please see our new website
and go to the sponsorship page.
Please contact Tina or Diane at the
Chamber Office 598-2636
with any questions about being a sponsor for
the 7th annual Powhatan Festival of the Grape
and the benefits of the various levels of sponsoring.
Be part of the fun!
