| Leadership Little Traverse Sponsorship Opportunities |
The 18th Leadership Little Traverse Class will launch this week with a cook-out Wednesday night and a day of team building on Thursday at Camp Daggett. There are 16-individuals participating in this year's class. The LLT Steering Committee strives each year to keep tuition as affordable as possible for this important community program. Therefore they seek underwriting support and in-kind contributions to help offset the program's costs. Thanks to the Outfitter, Harbor-Brenn Agencies, and Bearcub Outfitters for sponsoring Camp Daggett, books, and binders respectively. If your business would like to support LLT, they are in need of Session Hosts for $250. The Session Host is recognized on the session's agenda, and then has an opportunity to visit the class during the day to share a message about their business, club, or organization. LLT is also in need of Lunch Hosts, usually restaurants who are willing to donate lunch for 20 people at one of the sessions. If you have an interest in either opportunity, contact Carlin Smith at 347-4150 or carlin@petoskeychamber.com.
