SPONSORS AND VENDORS

The Biennial Training Conference is financially dependent on membership attendance fees, donations and sponsorships. We are seeking your help in gathering donations and sponsorships for the 2026 event. You can help by individually seeking donations or forwarding contacts and ideas that we can approach. We will actively start to campaign around the 1st of May with an email to potential donors and sponsors.
The following Google Form will help you communicate your assistance with this task.
Sponsor and Donor Response Form


This flyer shows the levels of sponsorship we are seeking. Know that any donation is appreciated and can be a small item for the raffle table or a million dollars or more in cash. Hint: Think about local, who do you know in your community that has fishing stuff that might be interested in supporting us. But we would also appreciate contact info for the likes of Melinda Gates. Be creative, we are not overly picky.


For any questions regarding the sponsorship opportunities, please contact Larry Pape at Larry.Pape@nebraska.gov


About us

The Aquatic Resources Education Association (AREA) was established in response to a growing national need for a cohesive voice and a more fluid, organized approach to regional, state, and local aquatic concerns. Members participate in a national effort toward education, conservation, legislation, science, research, and similar functions related to aquatics and aquatic programs. Members have direct access to national, regional, and local levels of support and expertise. 

AREA members participate in a national effort toward angler and aquatic education, angler R3, outreach, resource conservation, research, program evaluation, and similar functions related to aquatic education and angler R3 programs. AREA members can participate in the national biennial conference and regional meetings / updates.
