sponsorship

We have had requested $1000 from Lockheed Martin. I'll let you know when I hear back.

I love you...

shhhh, you don't want Morford to get jealous.....

Here are some companies we discussed getting to sponsor us. The letters are mostly already written, but we need to find the correct contact person to send the letters to.


Money:

-Royal Caribbean (we missed the deadline, Jan 7, 2011)
-Hunter Marine
-Navy
-Air Force
-Army

Also Progress Energy (Brian Green is working on finding the contact person)
and Marines - Tony Uanino from ASME needs us to talk to their contact.

Items:
-Publix (gift cards for weeki wachee)
-chains/sprockets from local bike shop
-Giant Food (food for competition at bethesda, md)
-FedEx/UPS - Dr. Schwartz said to just walk in and talk to the boss. However, we have to bring a trailer anyway, so it is probably not worth it.

Here's another idea - Pepsi refresh

Also, someone needs to request more nose cones from Parragon Plastics. Nic (nic.fischer@ufl.edu) might have the contact info for the person we got the nose cones donated from. We have the mold, we just need to ship it to them and have the nose cones made. See if we can get them donated.

Tim Philipp and I are working on the grocery store sponsorships. We are waiting on a form from ASME, but we haven't heard back from them. I can go talk to Jan Rockey on Monday to see if there is a better way to get the form. Alberth said the form is in some room that is under construction, so that is the reason for the delays.

Also, Rachel already wrote the letter for Hunter Marine. We just need the format of the brochure to be fixed.
