Sponsor Information

We're inviting you to be a sponsor, again or for the first time, for Idaho's biggest dog walk and festival, See Spot Walk 2008. Sponsorship is an opportunity to show your community that you're making a pawsitive difference in our area.

See Spot Walk is more than just a dog walk with 3,000 dog lovers strutting their mutts through downtown Boise. Held in Julia Davis Park at the big band shell, festivities include retail vendor and sponsor booths, doggie contests, food, floats, music, costumes and cool prizes. Dogs of every size, shape, color and breed bring their families dressed in neat event T-shirts and doggie scarves!

Commercial vendors will be charged a $75 fee and non-profit groups a $25 fee to participate. You will be provided with a 6-foot table, signage, and a colorful table cover in an accessible and visible area for pawsitive promotional value.

Every dollar we raise goes to a great cause.
