Sport leaders felt it was time to recognize the important contribution of sponsors during the pandemic, and wanted a website that connects sport families to supporting sponsors.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Responsible for assisting Sport Aurora in the website\u2019s design and build is Addison Marketing Solutions, with support of funds that were sent to Sport Aurora last year from the Ontario Trillium Foundation Resilient Communities Fund.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Local sport organizations, businesses, sponsors, parents, local media and others will be attending the live launch of the marketplace being held Thursday, September 23.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThis is a ground-breaking opportunity for sport and business to connect. It is such a simple solution and it could be implemented anywhere there is a vibrant sport community that relies on local sponsorship and where those sport organizations want to support local business,\u201d Eric Harbottle, Addison Marketing Solutions CEO stated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To find out where the event is being held, please contact Executive Director of Sport Aurora Laurie Mueller at <a href=\"mailto:executive.director@sportaurora.ca\">executive.director@sportaurora.ca<\/a> for more details.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sport Aurora\u2019s latest development comes at a great time as the organization continues to prepare another All Sport One Day program set to take place on October 16.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Registration for the event opened on September 16 at sportaurora.ca.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>By Robert Belardi<\/strong><\/p>\n<a class=\"synved-social-button synved-social-button-share synved-social-size-24 synved-social-resolution-single synved-social-provider-facebook nolightbox\" data-provider=\"facebook\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\" title=\"Share on Facebook\" href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/sharer.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.newspapers-online.com%2Fauroran%2Fwp-json%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fposts%2F30018&amp;t=Sport%20Aurora%20recognizing%20sponsors%20through%20upcoming%20marketplace&amp;s=100&amp;p[url]=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.newspapers-online.com%2Fauroran%2Fwp-json%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fposts%2F30018&amp;p[images][0]=&amp;p[title]=Sport%20Aurora%20recognizing%20sponsors%20through%20upcoming%20marketplace\" style=\"font-size: 0px;width:24px;height:24px;margin:0;margin-bottom:5px;margin-right:5px\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Facebook\" title=\"Share on Facebook\" class=\"synved-share-image synved-social-image synved-social-image-share\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\" style=\"display: inline;width:24px;height:24px;margin: 0;padding: 0;border: none;box-shadow: none\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newspapers-online.com\/auroran\/wp-content\/plugins\/social-media-feather\/synved-social\/image\/social\/regular\/48x48\/facebook.png\" \/><\/a><a class=\"synved-social-button synved-social-button-share synved-social-size-24 synved-social-resolution-single synved-social-provider-twitter nolightbox\" data-provider=\"twitter\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\" title=\"Share on Twitter\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.newspapers-online.com%2Fauroran%2Fwp-json%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fposts%2F30018&amp;text=Like%3F\" style=\"font-size: 0px;width:24px;height:24px;margin:0;margin-bottom:5px;margin-right:5px\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"twitter\" title=\"Share on Twitter\" class=\"synved-share-image synved-social-image synved-social-image-share\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\" style=\"display: inline;width:24px;height:24px;margin: 0;padding: 0;border: none;box-shadow: none\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newspapers-online.com\/auroran\/wp-content\/plugins\/social-media-feather\/synved-social\/image\/social\/regular\/48x48\/twitter.png\" \/><\/a><a class=\"synved-social-button synved-social-button-share synved-social-size-24 synved-social-resolution-single synved-social-provider-mail nolightbox\" data-provider=\"mail\" rel=\"nofollow\" title=\"Share by email\" href=\"mailto:?subject=Sport%20Aurora%20recognizing%20sponsors%20through%20upcoming%20marketplace&amp;body=Like%3F:%20https%3A%2F%2Fwww.newspapers-online.com%2Fauroran%2Fwp-json%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fposts%2F30018\" style=\"font-size: 0px;width:24px;height:24px;margin:0;margin-bottom:5px\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"mail\" title=\"Share by email\" class=\"synved-share-image synved-social-image synved-social-image-share\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\" style=\"display: inline;width:24px;height:24px;margin: 0;padding: 0;border: none;box-shadow: none\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newspapers-online.com\/auroran\/wp-content\/plugins\/social-media-feather\/synved-social\/image\/social\/regular\/48x48\/mail.png\" \/><\/a>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Aurora\u2019s umbrella organization for local sports clubs has continued to make a difference for children and volunteers in the community over the years, and they\u2019re going one step further as they launch the Sport Aurora Marketplace in support of local businesses.
