EVENT SPONSORSHIPS

Event sponsorships are available for visitor-facing events held within Clackamas County that demonstrate broad positive economic impact for the community in which they take place.

Priority will be given to new events, where plans exist to grow/enhance existing events and/or organizers intend to promote their event to more diverse and audiences outside the region.

Sponsorships from $500 to $1,500 can be awarded. The level of sponsorship offered will be based on considerations that include:

      - length of event (single or multiple consecutive days or event season/series)
      - duration of event (number of hours)
      - attendance size
      - scale/scope of promotion
      - open to the general public
      - likelihood of drawing out-of-area attendees
      - alignment with 
Tourism’s Strategic Priorities

Event sponsorships are only available to event organizers. Organizations are eligible to receive one (1) event sponsorship per calendar year quarter. Funds awarded are not a guarantee of future funding for the same event.

Requests for sponsorships will be considered no more than six (6) months in advance of event. Requests will be accepted as long as funding is available. This page will be updated as needed.


Request Process:

Complete an on-line Request Form.

Requests will be reviewed and replied to within two (2) weeks. If approved, requestors will need to submit a County Vendor Packet with an IRS W-9 Form if one is not already on file.

If you have questions about Event Sponsorships please email Funding@mthoodterritory.com. (please set Subject Line to "Event Sponsorship Inquiry")
