LET’S TALK DICKENS 2014!
Come celebrate the 15th Anniversary of Boerne’s
DICKENS ON MAIN holiday festival along the Hill
Country Mile. Dickens on Main is the premier holiday
event of the Texas Hill Country where the Boerne
community and visitors from near and far come to
bring the Spirit of Christmas Alive!
This year’s festival is two days packed with activities for all ages. A few features
include the holiday tree lighting, holiday music and entertainment, a Dickens Village
with entertainment and food, an Artisan’s Market featuring handmade pieces, horsedrawn carriage rides, Children’s activities and rides, fun holiday contests, and – of
course – it wouldn’t be Christmas without Santa and snow!
New this year, the hours for the community event will be extended each day to
encourage more shopping in our fun and fabulous local downtown stores -- and we will
top off the event with a concert by a featured musical artist on Saturday evening!
We hope that you will consider partnering with us to bring the Hill Country this best
ever vintage Christmas event. We offer many sponsorship opportunities for your
consideration as outlined in the enclosed information.
We thank you for your consideration and we hope that you will join us for this familyfriendly event that has become a Hill Country tradition.
Please note, the earlier you make your sponsor decision, the more exposure you will
receive at your desired level of sponsorship. In order to be included in our printed
materials, you must reserve and pay for your sponsorship no later than Friday,
October 3, 2014.
We look forward to discussing these opportunities with you further.
Sincerely,
Paul Barwick
