Chaired by the VP Sponsorship, this committee is comprised of 6-10 hospitality partners. The goal of the committee is to review the sponsorship program to provide a fair and objective process for identifying, retaining and recognizing sponsors in a way that is in the best interests of the association and that demonstrates value to sponsors for their participation.

This task force is responsible for balancing the association's financial initiatives and the hospitality partner community's initiatives. It will evaluate the sponsorship needs of the association and the effectiveness of sponsor recognition. This committee maintains a productive relationship with hospitality partners. Its current priority is to develop a revised and improved sponsorship program that is objective in nature and meets the ROI needs of hospitality partners.
