The 2024 Manitoba Summer Games have announced their first major sponsor for the event.
Co-chairs Clayton Swanton and Carla Wolfenden announced this morning that 730 CKDM has come on board as a media partner for the event.
Wolfenden says they are continuing to work on more sponsorships for the games.
"We do have a couple of other major sponsors that we are just finalizing and we will be able to announce very soon. We have sent out letters to most businesses in Dauphin. And we will be in touch soon via email or dropping off letters or face-to-face contact by Clayton or I."
Swanton adds Sport Manitoba is a huge partner in making sure the games are a success.
"The work that they do behind the scenes in between those four-year periods to make sure that this happens is massive, and the funding that flows through them into our community. That is the reason for hosting is the amount of legacy you get to leave for your capital projects coming from dollars flowing through Sport Manitoba is just incredible."
The games are set for August 11th to 17th in Dauphin.
It is the first time that Dauphin has hosted the multi sport event since 2004.
