Hi Event Organizers,
The Drupal Association works with a lot of sponsors and partners - many of whom like to sponsor camps. It takes them a lot of time to research and reach out to all the camps that they want to sponsor, so we are making it easier for them.
We are asking sponsors and partners to fill out a form so they can tell us:
- What kind of camp they want to sponsor
- If they have a special offer for camps (free Internet, free developer tools, etc)
Then, we will post the information here. If you feel that a company’s camp sponsor criteria matches your event, then you can reach out to them with a sponsor package.
One company has filled out this form - JetBrains. Please have a look! Before we go too far and get more companies, we want to hear from you. Is this the best way to connect event organizers with camp leaders?
So, take a look! Tell us your thoughts...and feel free to reach out to JetBrains if their camp sponsor needs matches your event.

I'm not sure if this is "the best" way to do this but it's certainly better then the current emailing people at the DA and asking for leads :). The more methods the better! In the future maybe having a node form / webform built into the drupal association site that allows vendors to submit this kind of info would be good. That way it could be presented along side info about starting / organizing a camp.
Another related form for Camps seeking sponsors might be good too as a nice way of bringing the two together at least in terms of positioning with the Drupal Association. Not the perfect solution but a step towards it more still.
Instead of currently where people like me will put something like this plug into a comment related to sponsorship (like I am right now ;)).
We're still looking for some more sponsors for DrupalcampPA 2014 in Pittsburgh August 2nd & 3rd.
