Sponsorship Opportunities

Banner Sponsorship Program

Effective the spring of 2015, the City is launching a Banner Sponsorship Program at the very popular Steven J Underwood Memorial Park just off S. 216th Street and/or the Des Moines Field House Park off 220th Street. The City will have either a 4'x4' or 4'x8' banner made with their logo and information to promote their business to the community for either one or three years. Thousands of athletes and fans of all ages visit these locations from March through November annually. Typically, these parks are booked solid so the banner would receive tremendous exposure. For more information please contact staff at 206-870-6527 or send an email.

Des Moines Memorial Bench Donation Program

The Des Moines Bench Program allows citizens to make a dedication on a city bench at one of the City's parks that comes under the jurisdiction of the Parks, Recreation and Senior services Department. There are 4 price options for this program: A current/recycled bench with a view of the water is $2,500; a current /recycled bench without a view of the water is $1,500; a new bench at a location proposed by a citizen with a view of the water is $3,000 and a new bench at a location proposed by a citizen without a view of the water is $2,000. New locations must be approved by Department and include a concrete pad.

The attractive benches are made from recycled plastic which are environmentally and maintenance friendly. Bench donations are accepted on the basis that they will be maintained for 10 years at a specified park location, after which time, disposition of the gift is at the sole discretion of the City of Des Moines. Dedications are at the discretion of the Department and available on 2 boards. For more information please contact staff at 206-870-6527 or send an email.
