Annual Columbia County Snowfest Provides Opportunity for Local Businesses to Engage the Community

Staff Report From Augusta CEO

Monday, November 14th, 2016

Finding snow this upcoming year in Columbia County will be easy. The Fifth Annual Columbia County Snowfest returns to Evans Towne Center Park on Jan. 14, 2017 from 10 a.m.-5 p.m. Sponsorship and partnership opportunities are now available for companies to expose their products, services and brand to thousands in the community.

Snowfest 2017 is sure to be a hit for companies associated with the event. The event includes a full day of live music, food vendors, arts and crafts, inflatables, a large carnival area, climbing wall, trackless train, kid’s karaoke on stage and showcases from local schools. To celebrate the 5th anniversary of Snowfest there is no charge to attend.

The annual event is produced by Mullins Management & Entertainment, and each year proceeds from Snowfest benefit a local charity. This year, proceeds will benefit Press On, a local nonprofit group dedicated to supporting research and finding a cure for childhood cancer.

“Folks from all over the CSRA come to Snowfest for a unique kind of fun,” said Joe Mullins, CEO of Mullins Management & Entertainment. “Our sponsors play a key role in helping to make sure the event is successful and our support of this year’s nonprofit beneficiary Press On is meaningful.”

Snowfest 2017 will also feature snow tubing slides and the return of the original snow fields for all ages. Plus there will be the return of the popular costumed Snowfest friends and characters.  While attendance is free, arm bands cost just $10 to participate in select attractions like rides.

Snowfest is a wonderfully family-fun event for the 6,000 plus expected attendees and a perfect opportunity for organizations to mingle with customers. Says Mullins, “We have many ways companies can partner with Snowfest including signage, mentions in material leading up to the event and on-site space to display products and services. It’s a great way to get out into community and see customers and prospects - all for a good cause.”

Sponsorship opportunities are still available at different package levels. For sponsorship information or for vendor information, contact Shae at 706-463-8696 for more information.
