For this project to be fully achieved, it is necessary
that RATz have a form of external sponsorship.
We have had interest from several local companies; some have already committed
themselves to the project. But in order for the trials to develop further
we still require donations and/or sponsorship.
All monies raised are spent on improving the trails,
this includes the general maintenance of the trails and existing features,
the construction of new trails and features, improved signage and any
other necessary expenses relating to the project. We do not make any profit!
We do this for the overall benefit of the community and for the love of
the sport.
There are several ways in which you can become a sponsor/donator,
depending on the amount you wish to commit:
Personal donations - An individual may wish to make
a small financial donation, this would be very welcome and would be placed
in our bank account and used as necessary.
Sponsoring of a trail feature* ** - You may wish to
sponsor a technical trail feature. Your donation is used to construct
a trail feature; this may be a timber construction or an earth feature.
Any advertising media you supply us can be displayed on the sponsored
feature. A web link will also be provided in our links section.
Sponsoring of a trail or partial trail* ** - Those
wishing to make larger donations may be able to sponsor a full trail,
or an area of a trail with a view to sharing the sponsorship of that trail
with other sponsors. You gain the benefits of sponsoring a trail feature,
but with a much larger advertising space.
A donation can be either financial (We have our own
bank account) or material (Construction materials or MTB related products
for fundraising events). Or anything else you feel may benefit us.
Any and all donations will be gratefully accepted.
If you wish to make a donation or require any further information
please register to our forums
or
* We would appreciate any companies sponsoring a trail feature or trail/partial
trail offer members of RATz a 10% or greater discount on any purchases
they make on production of their membership card.
**Advertising media has to be agreed and accepted by RATz.
