Sponsorships and Donations
Planning is well
under way for the 2007 Pacific Grove Feast of Lantern’s’ celebration,
which will be held July 25 through July 29, 2007. Each year we must look
to our community for the financial support that will enable us to carry-on
the Festival’s 102-year old tradition. It is with pride that we find the
community’s enthusiasm and support for the Feast of Lanterns grows
stronger each year. We can, with your support, continue to celebrate our
community’s history, traditions and culture. We invite you to become a
part of this historic and festive event by joining our distinguished list
of 2007 Sponsors and Donors. It is the support of our community’s members
that make it possible to bring this piece of Americana to Pacific Grove
each year. We have designed three Sponsorship
Packages that offer a range of participation – and we trust one is
right for you. The 2007 Sponsorship Package Summary details the benefits
of Sponsorship. We have four Donor categories
that also offer a range of participation – be recognized as a Feast of
Lanterns patron in the local newspaper.
Thank you to our 2007
