A Big Week for Shore2Shore

Shore2Shore took on three new sponsors in the past week! All three will be donating their services, product, and cash to support the event and Variety the Children's Charity.

"Ritchie Brothers Auctioneers was a huge deal for the success of Shore2Shore. Their staff have been supportive of the event right from the start. There is no doubt that their contributions will help to make this event as successful as possible." Said Mike Passas, Local 2407 and Co Team Leader for Shore2Shore.

Ritchie Bros. Auctioneers is the world’s largest industrial auctioneer, with 39 auction sites worldwide. They sold US$3.57 billion of used and unused equipment at 340 unreserved auctions in 2008, including a wide range of heavy equipment, trucks and other assets for the construction, transportation, agricultural, material handling, mining, forestry, petroleum and marine industries.

POWERBAR has also committed to supporting Shore2Shore. POWERBAR is passionate about sports and fitness, health and wellness. All of their products are backed by decades of sports nutrition science and must live up to high standards to meet the nutrition and energy needs of all athletes — from world-class champions and dedicated amateurs to beginners. The Shore2Shore team is stoked to have POWERBAR on board. They are definitely a perfect fit for the event.

Another local White Rock business to step up and get involved is Parfour Signs and Printing. Parfour Signs has always been a big supporter of the White Rock fire fighters and local charity. Parfour Signs and Printing is a full service design and print shop for everything from business cards to large scale banners and vehicle graphics.
Their first big print job for Shore2Shore (a 25ft. banner) can been seen hanging at the front of the fire hall already!
