Re: How do your teams recognize your sponsors?

We held a Sponsor Appreciation Night just last week, inviting every sponsor to get some food, see (and drive) the robot, and talk to the team. About 30 minutes of speeches (including testimony from students on how FIRST has impacted them), very nice glass plaques (more like trophies) for the larger contributors, and a lot of nice displays.

That is in addition to being on the team shirts, on the robot, etc.

One thing the sponsors appreciate is the correct usage of their logo. We ask, and also have them approve it, no matter where we put it. It shows that we respect their property.

Don

Re: How do your teams recognize your sponsors?

I guess this isn't really recognizing sponsors, but every Friday during build (and of course after competitions), we send updates on the progress of the robot, animation, and t-shirts/trinkets/awards and stuff. =]

Re: How do your teams recognize your sponsors?

I heard that Boeing wants to sponser our school, What all does that mean? Does it just mean more money, or also access to mentors?

Edit: sorry about that misspelling

Re: How do your teams recognize your sponsors?

Logos on the 'bot and tshirts, for one of our sponsors (MV Transportation) we have hats with the MV logo on them.

Our team leader wants to get all the sponsor logos waterjetted into this year's 'bot's chassis... I think it'd be cool too but I'd worry about rigidity (wait a tic... we removed 90% of the material from one of last year's supports and it was barely affected... I could still stand on it).
