Dear Potential, URDC Sponsor,
The Upstate Regional Drill Championship is an event for High School JROTC programs from the Southeast to come and showcase their abilities; competing with some of the best talent in South Carolina. 2018 is the forth annual championship year for URDC. There are already twenty platoons, totaling about 700 cadets, representing schools from South Carolina, North Carolina, Tennessee and Georgia preparing to bring their best. The event takes place at the Anderson Civic Center on Saturday March 3th, 9:00 AM and we need your help!
We are seeking sponsors to help in the event’s continued growth. The URDC provides enhanced leadership opportunities and development opportunity for personal responsibility of the cadets who compete & run the annual event. You may choose to sponsor via direct donation to the Upstate Regional Drill Championship general fund, sponsor a cadet(s) meal and/or contribute to a specific area of JROTC. The general fund monies are disbursed based on need and priority as established by the JROTC Instructors for the benefit of cadets.
We are also seeking In Kind Sponsors who donate product to help offset the cost of the event. We need food for snacks, drinks for the thirsty, and many other items. If you can donate in this manner please contact us directly to discuss the product and appropriate recognition for you and your business. We hope you choose to help expand the opportunities for eager, dedicated, young people in Anderson by sponsoring in either format.
This event is managed by Anderson Lights of Hope. Anderson Lights of Hope is a non-profit 501(c)3 organization that hosts and manages several events in Anderson. All monies brought in through URDC go to pay for the cost of the event, programs associated with the event, trophies for the cadets, and scholarships for outstanding student cadets. **No Money received in this event funds payroll or any capital expenses. **
