We are working on getting financing for the conference lined up this week. The conference is July 13-15 in Newport News.
Here are the sponsorship levels:
$100- Conference Sponsor- Name in Program
$250- Conference Benefactor- Name in Program and announced at dinner. (Maybe even a speaking slot if you have something interesting to say!)
Also, there are opportunities to sponsor the specific events. There will only be one sponsor of each event.
$400- Sponsor of Friday Night Welcome Reception at Marriott.
$600- Sponsor of Saturday Breakfast at CNU
$600- Sponsor of Saturday Lunch at CNU
Because there is only one sponsorship slot available per event above, this will be first come, first served. Email me if interested. I'm announcing this now at the same time for everyone to be as fair as possible.
Finally, we have the Saturday night dazzling dinner to end the conference. Dinner sponsorships are $500, but are not exclusive.
Finally one last thing I should point out. None of the money raised goes to anything political. The conference costs exceed $10,000, and we are hoping to keep registration to $25 per blogger attending. Should we run a surplus (yeah, right), it will go to next year's conference.
If you get the General Lee there i am so coming...

There are also two other program sponsorships. If you would like to advertise, here are the details:
$100 just to be listed, as Ben mentioned.
$150 for a 1/4 page
$200 for a 1/2 page
$250, as Ben mentioned, for a full page as a conference benefactor -- we already have one delegate in Hampton Roads who decided to do this...any other takers?
