__________________________________________________________________
BACKGROUND
On June 29, 1925, Indian River County, a subsidiary of the State of Florida, was formed. In observation of this momentous occasion the County desires to hold a celebration for the 100-year anniversary January 2025 through June 2025. Events will be scheduled and held throughout the County along with a history fair and parade. There will also be an event honoring the pioneer families (those that have resided in Indian River County since 1925).
On December 17, 2024, the Board of County Commissioners approved acceptance of a $10,000 sponsorship. These funds were never received and Cleveland Clinic has indicated they would like to amend their sponsorship to $5,000 (Manatee), which includes the following benefits:
CCIRH recognition on the Centennial website.
CCIRH social media recognition as sponsor of the Event.
Two (2) Centennial pole flags to be hung in Vero Beach of Sebastian with CCIRH logo.
Five (5) yard signs showing CCIRH support for the Event.
Four (4) Swag bags containing Centennial memorabilia.
