Sponsorship 2024 Community Events

TOGETHER, WE MAKE SCIENCE FOR OUR COAST POSSIBLE

Pontchartrain Conservancy hosts community events that range from hurricane preparation, volunteer cleanups, film screenings, and special events at the holidays. These events not only educate the community but provide a fun way to bring locals together in service and celebration.

Local and regional businesses can gain tremendous exposure during these events through sponsorship. It's also a great way for companies to build teamwork by volunteering as part of a sponsorship package.

We cannot protect our region alone. That is why we are compelled to leverage a more diverse set of collaborators and grow our base of support. And, why our priority is to drive stewardship, so that everyone understands why their role is crucial in protecting our waterways, our coast, and our nation.

Our Board, staff and supporters worked together to save our lake; now we must work together to maintain the basin's vibrancy while saving our coast.

Thank you,

Kristi Trail Executive Director

STORM AWARE & PREPARE

Cleanup and preparedness event to protect and inform our community ahead of storm season

STORM AWARE & PREPARE

June

1, 2024

EVENT PURPOSE: Our goal is to help prepare the public for the 2024 storm season, while educating our community about the connection between coastal restoration and reduction of storm risk. The event will feature giveaways and resources, educational activities for the whole family, and snowballs for kids and adults too. Residents are encouraged to clean up their neighborhoods and storm drains before hurricane season to minimize the risk of flooding in the summer.

MOVIE NIGHT AT THE LIGHTHOUSE

MOVIE NIGHT AT THE LIGHTHOUSE

Spring: May 3, 2024 “Finding Dory”

Fall: TBD

EVENT PURPOSE: In partnership with NORD, we are presenting free movie nights in spring and fall. At our inaugural event in Fall 2023, the showing of “JAWS” was a phenomenal success. The event is designed to showcase fun ways to engage with Lake Pontchartrain and interact with STEM exhibits before the show. Beverages and snowballs are on site for purchase, and sponsorship helps make the event free to the public.
