For some reason, we don&#8217;t even offer sponsorship. That may be due to the current arrangement where an outside company is paid to run OUR triathlon. Hey Chamber of Commerce, wake up. Do your job. Sell something.

Now it&#8217;s time to cash in. We know of 2 car dealers that would KILL to sponsor this popular event.\u00a0Unfortunately, we&#8217;re probably running the 4&#215;4 event at a LOSS when you consider overtime, clean-up & other city related services devoted to this day. The in-effective Brigantine Chamber Commerce recommendation of charging only $5 for a 4&#215;4 pass, is leaving an awful lot of money on the table.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Jet Ski Weekend\u00a0<\/strong>\n<ul>\n<li>Wow.
