The City of Plattsburgh is seeking a community partner to continue one of the most popular parts of our Parks Come Alive series: free $5 food vouchers for attendees!

For years, these vouchers helped families enjoy a meal from local food vendors while spending an evening in their neighborhood park. Unfortunately, our previous sponsor is no longer able to provide this support, and we're looking for an organization, business, or community-minded partner to help continue this tradition at our three 2026 Parks Come Alive events.

In return for a $2,500 Sponsorship, the sponsoring organization would receive:
• A central booth space at all three events
• Logo placement on printed promotional materials
• Space to display a company banner at the events
• Co-sponsorship recognition on event signage, banners, and lawn signs
• Event branding as "Parks Come Alive presented by the City of Plattsburgh and [Sponsor Name]"
• Recognition through social media, press releases, the City website, and other event promotions

Parks Come Alive brings hundreds of residents together each summer for free family activities, entertainment, community resources, and fun in our neighborhood parks.

If your organization is interested in partnering with us, please contact Emma Stewart at [email protected] for more information.

Together, we can help ensure every family can enjoy a great evening at Parks Come Alive.
