Saturday, October 8th marks the 23rd Annual Greatest Ferret Show on
Earth sponsored by the Greatest Sponsor on Earth: Ferret Depot. The
show is hosted by the Greater Chicago Ferret Association (GCFA) housing
80-100 ferrets at any given time, and sanctioned by the American Ferret
Association.
Sponsorship Opportunities: We have 6 sponsorship opportunities left.
* Three specialty classes (Black Mitt/Black Roan Mitt, Mitts, and
Silver/Roan)
* Two Title classes (Adolescent, Late Alters)
* Costume Contest Sponsor
Please considering sponsoring a class at the show. The GCFA is a 501c3
organization, and your sponsorships are tax deductible to the fullest
extent of the law. Last year we had over 250 attendees, and we expect
more this year. This is a chance for you to be recognized as a
supporter of the ferret community and one of the oldest ferret shelters
in the United States.
Vendors: If you have items that our attendees would be interested in,
please consider attending the show as a vendor. There are approximately
15 spaces left.
Showbook advertising: Our showbooks are given out FREE to every
attendee at the show, and extras are created after the show to hand out
to the ferret-vets in the Chicago area. show books are read not only by
vendors, and show goers while in the hall, but for years to come. Vets
place the showbooks in their waiting rooms, and people not acquainted
with the show system flip through them and read your ad! Please
consider placing an ad in our show book - the Chicago market is huge!
Raffle and Auction items: We have a large raffle and auction on the day
of the show. Arguably, it is one of the busiest areas of the show hall.
If you can donate something (a service, an item, a gift card, etc) your
name will be mentioned in the showbook (given away to every attendee as
well as distributed to the vets, as mentioned above). Donating to the
raffle and auction also means you can declare the support on your
income taxes, to the fullest extent the government allows.
Forms for sponsorship, advertising, vendor rental, and raffle donations
can be found at the show website: www.GreatestFerretShowOnEarth.info
Thanks!
