Sponsorship and Vendor/Exhibitor Information​ 

Picture
The annual Summer Tour is the highlight event that brings together Maple Producers of all sizes and from across Ontario along with maple suppliers and industry experts.  It includes 2 days of site tours to small and large sugar houses that each have unique operations and advice to share with other Producers.  The theme of this year’s conference is “From Here Forward” and a day of technical presentations will build on this theme through sessions from industry leaders who will share their perspectives on topics covering woodlot silviculture, production, quality management and marketing.

For Summer Tour 2023 we anticipate over 200 full conference registrations and an additional 100-200 one-day registrations.  The conference format will encourage attendees to mix and socialize at the trade show exhibits as well as the tour stops and dinner events.  Evening events will include an Icebreaker held at The Locks Restaurant on the Wednesday evening, an outdoor BBQ at Algonquin College on Thursday evening, and the annual Banquet Dinner at Code’s Mill on Friday.  At each event throughout the tour, our supporters will be recognized and there will be opportunities for Exhibitors and Sponsors to connect with conference participants.

​The event is going to be based at the Perth Campus of Algonquin College.  This large site offers ample parking, high-speed Internet, and will also be the host to vendors, exhibitors, and sponsors.

Sponsorships

​Corporate supporters are highly appreciated and an important ingredient in making the Summer Tour a success.  Different sponsorship levels have been created to offer recognition to our businesses and industry partners.  The sponsorship packages create value by combining advertising, signage, verbal recognition, exhibitor space and conference registration fees along with a multitude of recognition and promotion medias.
