Dear Corporate Friend:

Thank you for your interest in becoming a sponsor for the university's 2009 Family Weekend program.

Family Weekend will take place on Friday, October 9 through Sunday, October 11, 2009. The weekend is filled with academic programs, musical entertainment, theater performances, athletic events, and much more. Family Weekend brings over 6,000 parents and family members to campus each year. This large market offers an excellent opportunity to build brand loyalty and capture more market share in the competitive world of higher education.

While Family Weekend is the singular event that will give you the most exposure, the Office of Parent and Family Affairs can provide year-round exposure through the Terp Parent web site (www.terpparent.umd.edu) and the eConnection newsletter distributed to parents via email each month. Your company logo and hyperlink will be just a click away from this influential and important consumer group.

The link listed below provides information on the many levels of sponsorship you can choose. For more information or to discuss the various levels of sponsorship, please contact Remy Shaffer Gomes at 301.314.0246 or via e-mail at rsgomes@umd.edu.

We hope you will consider joining the University of Maryland team as a 2009 corporate partner.
