The banquet is just 3 months away! Mark your calendar for 8/8/26!
We are finalizing the last few details so that we can get our tickets printed so stay tuned!!! Banquet flyer and info will be coming soon!
In the meantime, please find attached 2 different ways you can help support our committee, banquet and the Friends of the NRA program. With us still not being able to do donation contests, we need your help and support this year more than ever! If you have any questions or would like to underwrite and/or sponsor an item, please contact us at [email protected] or call Karen at (865) 254-2897.
Sponsorships:
Sponsorships are a good way to help support the program, get a nice item, and still get a tax deductible receipt. Basically you pick the level of sponsorship and pay that amount. The item will be ordered and you will be contacted when it is received. In case of a firearm, you will go to our FFL and fill out the necessary paperwork. You not only get the item but you get a tax deductible receipt for the amount you paid minus the cost of your item. You will also be listed in the event program as a sponsor!
Underwriting:
Underwriting is a good way to help support the program and get a tax deductible receipt for the item you are underwriting. This is an exceptional way for businesses to get free advertising and a tax write off as you get a tax receipt for the full amount of the item. Basically you are "buying" the item and donating it to our banquet. You/your company will be listed as underwriting the item in our event program, and your name/company name will be on a sign next to the item at the banquet.
