The Next Big Thing 2011
February 28, 2011 Dear Potential Sponsor: You are invited to be a part of the first annual “The Next Big Thing” competition at the University of Arizona. The competition will feature musical acts spanning different genres from the University of Arizona in a competition to see who is “The Next Big Thing” on campus. The competition spans three days with preliminary rounds on March 28 and 29 with the finale on March 30. The winner of the finale will win an opening performance at Spring Fling which will also feature performances by Cousin Affect, Jonathan Tyler and the Northern Lights (Artists are subject to change). The event is open to the entire Tucson community. As a sponsor of “The Next Big Thing”, your company will gain unique marketing opportunities which offer you the chance to reach over 35,000+ college students - most between the ages of 17 and 25 – as well as hundreds of music lovers from Arizona and beyond. Whether your company has a booth at our event on the mall or at Spring Fling, your logo on our stage banner, or on our one-of-a-kind t-shirts, you are sure to hit your target! Enclosed you will find various packages that your company can purchase. I look forward to discussing the role that your company or organization can play in “The Next Big Thing”! Please don’t hesitate to contact me with any questions at (520) 275-6803 or email at [email protected]. Thank you again and we can’t wait to welcome you as a sponsor of “The Next Big Thing” 2010!
Best regards,

Spring Fling, a Tucson fixture for 37 years, is recognized as the largest student-organized carnival in the nation and has become the 7th largest event in Tucson. It is a crucial source of funding for University of Arizona clubs, helping them earn up to $40,000 to sustain themselves and expand their outreach on campus and around the Tucson community.
On average, 25,000 people attend this fundraising event, which is put on by 1,000 dedicated University of Arizona students and 8 year-round directors.
While raising money for university clubs and organizations is the primary means of Spring Fling, we spare no expense to provide safe, fun entertainment for both students and residents of Tucson alike. Over 30 University of Arizona clubs and organizations will contribute 30 game and food booths to compliment more than 25 carnival rides and attractions.
With your contribution, you are not only advertising to 25,000 carnival-goers, a majority of whom are university students and Tucson families, but also being aligned with the Spring Fling name that is recognized throughout the community. Most importantly, by sponsoring Spring Fling you are helping to strengthen both the University of Arizona and the greater Tucson community.
