Engaged in the Community
Partnering with the Crete Park District is a fantastic way to elevate your brand while making a meaningful impact in the community. Sponsorship provides valuable brand awareness, ensuring your business is seen by families, athletes, and visitors at our programs, events, and facilities. With more than 4,000 participants annually across various programs – including athletics, camps, ABC Play Preschool, and special events – your sponsorship reaches a diverse audience, from young children and their parents to active seniors and adults.
Events
These cherished community traditions bring families together for fun and memorable experiences. Sponsoring our events provides a fantastic opportunity to connect with local families. With high attendance and strong community engagement, our events offer excellent visibility for sponsors, showcasing their support for local traditions while building brand recognition in a warm, family-friendly atmosphere.
E-Program Guides
Advertising in our E-Program Guide is a great way to increase your brand’s visibility and connect with thousands of potential customers. By placing an ad, your business gains valuable exposure within the community while supporting local initiatives. Each ad includes a direct link to your website, making it easy for readers to learn more about your services. This is an excellent opportunity to build brand awareness and engage an audience that values local business.
Field/Court Banners
Located at Heritage Park, our four baseball fields are a hub for local athletics, providing high-quality space for practice and games. Field banners offer a prime opportunity to showcase your business in front of local families at every game and practice. With only two signs per field, this exclusive sponsorship ensures high visibility and maximum impact.
Programs
This sponsorship is more than just advertising; it’s an investment in the future of our youth programs and a way to demonstrate your commitment to community enrichment. Whether on the soccer field, at summer camp, or out in the neighborhood, your logo will be seen by potential customers in countless places. It’s a valuable opportunity to build brand recognition while making a meaningful impact on local families.
