2006 Battle Beach Sponsorship Packages

Battle Beach, LLC is please to be able to offer sponsorship opportunities for the April, 2006 Battle Beach robot combat event.  This is Battle Beach’s fourth major  event and will bring fighting robots from across the country together in an exciting and safe competition. Battle Beach’s partner for this event is Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University in Daytona Beach, Florida The competition will be held in nearby Deland, at the Volusia County Fairgrounds on April 8 and 9, 2006. For more information and updates please visit our (new and improved!) web site at: www.BattleBeach.com

Combat Robotics is flourishing, with almost 50 North American events featuring close to 1600 combat robot entries in 2005. Thousands of builders, and tens of thousands of spectators, enjoy these events with their combination of high technology and intense competition.

The builder and spectator community represent a cross section of the most innovative and active people in our society. They come from all levels of corporate America, including manufacturing, services and sales industries. Also strongly represented is the educational community, with primary, secondary and college students and teachers.

We have media coverage commitments from Servo Magazine and Robot Magazine, and are actively soliciting further television and print coverage.  Battle Beach will be held concurrently with several large events at the Fairgrounds, so we expect a large crowd of spectators.

Sponsorship, via cash contributions or prize donations, is key to helping Combat Robotics grow and to keeping your name in the public eye at the same time. Robot builders show strong loyalty to companies that sponsor their sport, and the return through word of mouth, team web sites, and forum postings is a significant marketing factor.

We have opportunities for sponsorship beginning at $50.00.  You can see more detailed information at www.BattleBeach.com. or feel free to contact Kevin Berry at LegendaryRobotics@gmail.com, or Brian Nave at briannave@yahoo.com.
