The City of Peru is looking for sponsor support! The Taste of the Illinois Valley is just over 3 months away and we have many activities, and a lot of entertainment lined up for everyone to enjoy! Is your business looking to get involved with community events?! If you answered yes, this is a great opportunity! Follow the link below!
All sponsorship dollars collected are specifically assisting with funding the Kids' Zone allowing the kids' activities to remain free!
We will try to approach each business in person to distribute sponsorship information, but we cannot get to all businesses in a short amount of time, so some might find the sponsorship information in the mail. If you're seeing this post and interested in being involved, feel free to click the link below for all of the information needed!
We look forward to working with your business to make the event another success in year 6!
If you have questions, please reach out to Adam Thorson at the City of Peru!
