Become a Business Partner of The Bay

Thank you for your interest in becoming a Business Partner of The Bay (or for renewing your Business Partnership)!

Every dollar of your support helps enable this signature public park to be “One Park for All” — by providing FREE ongoing activities, programs and events that are open and accessible, free and welcoming to the full and rich diversity of the community, now and for generations to come.

The Bay is a beloved gathering place where people of all ages can take a walk to be with nature or watch a movie under the stars. They can enjoy a free concert in the park or explore Sarasota Bay in a kayak. They get their heart pumping at a fitness class or get their feet moving at a dance party.

What’s the Impact?

Great parks help make great cities. The Bay has become such a catalyst for the community.

Great activation and programming separates best-in-class parks from good parks. In the past year, more than 50,000 people participated in at least one free event at The Bay.

The FREE programs, activities and events at The Bay are thoroughly enjoyed by park guests and are considered to be high quality as 97% say they will return and 92% rate the events as Very Good/ Excellent.

Business Partner Benefits:

  • Recognition on The Bay website, including logo and optional quote.
  • Recognition on The Bay digital donor walls located in the Welcome Center and in the park.
  • Recognition in The Bay Annual Report as a Business Partner.
  • Opportunities for your employees to give back to the community by volunteering in the park.
  • And, of course, the park is a free amenity for your staff, customers, suppliers and partners to enjoy.
