Pleasure Island Fall Surf Challenge Sponsorships

PLEASURE ISLAND FALL SURF FISHING CHALLENGE SPONSORSHIP OPPORTUNITIES

Fisherman’s Post is looking to work with area sponsors to help make the Pleasure Island Fall Surf Fishing Challenge another huge success (attracting approximately 500-600+ anglers annually). And this year the Pleasure Island Fall Surf Fishing Challenge will once again be donating all tournament fish to First Fruit Ministries.

Sponsoring the Pleasure Island Surf Fishing Challenge is a great opportunity for your business to promote itself to a broad range of potential customers. Your support of this tournament will get your business in front of the large surf fishing community—both locals and visitors—of southeastern North Carolina.

Market your business, expose potential clients to your products and services, and create a favorable impression of your business by aligning yourself with this very popular, strongly marketed, and highly visible surf fishing tournament (and the proceeds go to a great cause).

This year the Pleasure Island Fall Surf Fishing Challenge will be donating tournament fish to Wilmington’s First Fruit Ministries. Since First Fruit Ministries began in 1998, it has grown to serve over 20,000 hot meals, provide emergency groceries to over 5,000 households, and shelter over 24 homeless women and families annually. This faith-based organization also runs such community programs as Wilmington Dream Center, Men’s Mentorship, Street Outreach, Urban Ministry Training Program, Adopt-A-Block, Street Church, and Widows Ministry.

In addition to the different sponsorship levels to choose from, there are several other ways to get involved: donate prizes for the raffle; donate items for the participants’ bags; volunteer your time to help us work the event; and/or enter as a contestant.
