To align with our “THE HUNT IS ON” theme, we’ve designed a contest to benefit both dealers and sponsors. Here’s how it works: All dealers will receive a game card onsite (referred to as the “Hunting Permit”). All sponsors will receive a packet of stickers accordingly to the level they sponsor at (Big Buck, Waterfowl, or Target). Dealers must collect stickers from the sponsors in order to complete their game card and be entered into a drawing for the Grand Prize. The higher the level you sponsor at, the more traffic will be required to visit your booth. For example, dealers will be required to collect a sticker from ALL Big Buck sponsors, most waterfowl sponsors, and only some of the target sponsors. All sponsors, regardless of level, will receive the following recognition: listing on the NLA website, listing in all pre-event and onsite printed literature, listing in the convention issue of the Connection magazine and the Scene Newsletter, on-site signage at sponsored function and entrance to exhibit hall, on-site signage hung at your booth to identify you as a sponsor, bright sponsor ribbon on all booth worker badges, and verbal recognition at the meal function. Sponsorship sign up opportunites are below. Read below for sponsorship options and descriptions. Prices and quantities of each sponsorship item available are on the back side of this page.
