Sponsorship Categories
Car Sponsorship
| Individual – $150 Donation |
The sponsor’s name and logo will be prominently displayed on the car. All public reference to the car will be by SPONSOR NAME, DRIVER NAME and CAR NUMBER. The Race Car in the competition shall result at the sole expense of the participant and the participant’s family or benefactor. The ownership of the car, after the race, will reside with the participant and the participant’s family.
The car will qualify for entry in subsequent All-American Soap Box Derby sanctioned races, and it may be sponsored by anyone providing donation to each subsequent racing event. The participant and the participant’s family shall choose or request the SBD Committee to assign a car sponsor for any subsequent racing events. |
| Corporate – $50 Donation |
The sponsor’s name and logo will be prominently displayed on the car. All public reference to the car will be by SPONSOR NAME, DRIVER NAME and CAR NUMBER. The Race Car in the competition shall result at the sole expense of the sponsor. The subsequent ownership of the car, after the race, will reside with the SBD Committee, donated by the sponsor. The sponsor, however, may assist with the display and safe-keeping of the car and advise on its use by future race entrants.
The initial assembly, repair and/or overhaul, finishing and command of the race car before and during each racing event shall be the responsibility of the assigned participant, with the aid, assistance and support of the participant’s family. Initial and replacement parts shall be provided by the initial sponsor.
The car will qualify for entry in subsequent All-American Soap Box Derby sanctioned races. The car will remain sponsored by the initial sponsor. Additional donation will be necessary for each subsequent racing event. The sponsor shall choose or request the SBD Committee to assign a driver for the car at any subsequent racing events. |
| Shared – $100 Donation |
The sponsor’s name and logo will be prominently displayed on the car. All public reference to the car will be by SPONSOR NAME, DRIVER NAME and CAR NUMBER. The Race Car in the competition shall result from a partnership between the participant, the participant’s family, and an individual sponsor. The sponsor shall be solicited by the participant, the participant’s family; or assigned by the SBD Committee.
The assembly, finishing and command of the race car before and during the race shall be the responsibility of the participant, with the aid, assistance and support of the participant’s family.
The percentage of each partner’s expenses shall determine ownership or the subsequent right of possession, safe-keeping and/or disposition of the race car, after the race. Such ownership, or rights, shall reside with the member of the partnership having the greater amount of cash money donated or invested in the car; and shall be determined by the partners prior to the purchase and assembly of the car.
It is the intent of the SBD Committee that an entrant, with the help of parents and family, enjoy the experience of assembling a car and having the entrant participating in the race; as opposed to owning a car, for which a sponsor has provided for more than half the cost of the parts.
The car will qualify for entry in this and subsequent All-American Soap Box Derby sanctioned races as either an Individual car or a Corporate car, with full rights and conditions applying as outlined above for either category. |
