| The readership of Historical Divermagazine continues
to increase rapidly. It is now mailed to divers in 35 countries,
including Russia and China, and is the official publication of the
Historical Diving Societies of the United States, Canada, Australia
and Southeast Asia. In an effort to improve the quality of
Historical Divermagazine, the Board of Directors has approved
a sponsorship program for the funding of Historical Diver in
2000.
Our projected operating budget for the
year is $50,000. The HDSUSA is seeking 20 sponsors - companies or
individuals - to donate $2,500.
In recognition of their support, sponsors will have their
logos displayed in color on one-tenth of the back cover in all four
2000 issues. In addition, each company will receive a half-page
promotional ad in each of the quarterly issues. They will also
receive acknowledgment on the HDSUSA web site and will be recognized
as sponsors in our dive show booth. We display at almost every major
consumer and trade show in the United States, Canada, Australia and
Singapore, and our unique booth attracts a lot of
attention.
Sponsorship of Historical Divermagazine provides an
opportunity for successful companies to give something back to the
broader diving community. A tax-deductible sponsorship donation will
help insure that the history of diving technology is accurately and
professionally recorded. It is an investment in the legacy that we
will leave for those who will follow us. Please help us preserve the
history of our industry.
Please consider a tax-deductible sponsorship donation to
Historical Divermagazine in your 2000 budgeting. You may e-mail us here or call us at (805)
692-0072.
Historically yours,
The Board of Directors of the Historical Diving Society USA,
Diving Historical Society Australia and Southeast Asia, and the
Historical Diving Society Canada
