2020 Oregon Heritage Conference - sponsorship opportunities
The Oregon Heritage Conference brings together over 300 leaders and volunteer organizers in the field of historic preservation, heritage, historic cemeteries, landmark commissions, historic trails, archaeology, main streets, and historical societies in Oregon. This year we will be asking attendees to join us in harnessing the power of heritage, April 22-24 in Corvallis. Conference headquarters will be the brand new Benton County Museum facility in downtown Corvallis.
Through three days of workshops, tours, keynote speakers, and sessions, our goal is to help these heritage heroes realize and leverage the power of heritage in their communities. We will also be celebrating project and individuals that have made an impact on heritage preservation in Oregon during the Oregon Heritage Excellence Awards.
There are many levels of sponsorship with a variety of benefits depending on the level ranging from inclusion in advanced marketing, special mention during the keynote, an ad in the conference program, a table in the exhibit hall, exclusive lanyard sponsor, sole sponsor of the heritage awards, and more.
Check out the full list of Sponsor Levels and Benefits<https://www.oregon.gov/oprd/HCD/OHC/docs/2020%20Sponsor%20Levels.pdf> and if you are ready to become a sponsor, just fill out and return a Sponsor Commitment Form<https://www.oregon.gov/oprd/HCD/OHC/docs/sponsor%20commitment%20form.pdf>.
