A random slot gives 1 chance for every slot sold that your banner will be displayed in a random banner. (i.e. If you buy one slot and 10 slots were sold then your ad would display ~ 1 time for every 10 hits to the page on which the banner is located.

Static banners will display your banner on a designated page every time that page is visited.

We have space available on our lead boat, the dyne, as well as on both of our supporting towboats. The jump is a stationary and constant presence in all Aqua Addicts home shows and many of its away shows. Like the boats there is space available for your ad on it.

Sponsor a Show

Sponsoring a show is a wonderful way for your organization to actually be incorporated into an Aqua Addicts show. For sponsoring a show, the theme committee will tailor the script and skits for your performance to include your company. This is a great opportunity to reward your employees for all their hard work. Sponsor a show, invite the crew out to the lake, and let the Aqua Addicts entertain you, your employees and your families.

Along with private shows, you can also sponsor one of our regularly scheduled shows. Along with the benefits mentioned above, your advertising message will also reach the other spectators who come to watch.

Sponsor Equipment or Apparel

Sponsoring equipment is an advertising option that potentially gives a longer return. This is how it works: Skiers on the team need equipment such as barefoot suits and jumping suits which can cost $200 - $300 each. If you wished to sponsor the barefoot suits you would help pay for the clubs barefoot suits. The suits would then bare your logo. Although this would be a large expense each suit may be used for several years. After the team was finished with the suits, the suits in fair condition would be sold by the member who owned it to others in the area (at a reduced rate). Then those people would also be wearing your advertisement for years after you helped purchase it.
In the case of apparel (i.e. shirts, hats, can coolers, etc.), you would help purchase one or more of these items. Your ad would be placed on the product(s) you sponsored along with the Aqua Addicts name and designs. These products would then be sold to team members and the public. Each item sold would then be a walking advertisement for your buisness! .

Aqua Addicts' Equipment and Apparel Cost

Type of Sponsorship	Cost	Minimum Quantity
Barefoot Suits	$200 - $300 each	10
Jump Suits	$200 - $300 each	10
T-Shirts	About $7-$8 each depending on quantity	100
