RONALD V. DELLUMS - INAUGURATION AS MAYOR OF OAKLAND - JANUARY 2007 - CORPORATE SPONSORSHIP BENEFITS



City Council Fireworks Here

This is a screen shot of the sponsorship matrix for the upcoming Mayoral Inauguration for Mayor Ron Dellums. The cost range is from $10,000 to $50,000. The second photo shows what benefits each sponsor gets. Actually, the sponsorship package is quite extensive considering the public exposure the event -- or events -- will certainly get.

Oh, if you're saying "I can't read this" just double click on the photo itself, then you'll see it full size for viewing.



As you can see it lists the different events and the costs of sponsorship. I mean look at it this way, it's not taxpayper dollars they're using. Plus, the Black And White Ball, which I referred to, also had sponsors and an extensive cost list. Yet one could get in for a fee, or just sneak in.

Now, some -- including me -- have misunderstood this to mean that the "common folk" can't come, and that doesn't appear to be the case at all; the event planners are just looking for sponsors. But the tickets themselves will go for just $10 and can be purchased online. So as it looks, the Mayoral Party is priced for everyone. But if you don't believe me, check out this from the website:

naugural Gala Reception $150
Gentlemen tuxedo assistance - Ladies formal gown assistance)

Oakland Arts Showcase $10
Hyphy Soul (VIP) $40
Hyphy Soul (General Admission) $20
LGBT Celebration $25
Inaugural Soiree $50

To obtain a discount, all tickets must be purchased in person at the Paramount Theatre by presenting a valid identification issued by a government agency or a school.

Same old same old: pay for access. Sure, the "common folk" can come, but they'll never get the access that comes with the black tie receptions and such.

Oakland Mayor's Race: LWV Forum Draws Oakland's Older Folks

Oakland Mayor's Race Forum first take. (Which means, there's going to be more of these posts on last night, because a lot was happening.) This just in: The Oakland Tribune's out of touch with Oakland. A number of attendees of the 450 estimated said they learned of the Oakland League Of Women Voters via "the newspaper." All of the people who made that statement were over 50 years old. Still, the forum, which attracted every candidate except Dr. Terrance Candell, was a success. The auditorium at 300 Lakeside Drive seats 380 people, so if you do the math, it was about 70 over capacity. The crowd was a happy mix of supporters of candidates and long-time observers of the Oakland political scene. The one complaint they had was there wasn't enough time to hear what the candidates were about. That wasn't because there were too many candidates, but due to the format. Either Oakland Tribune Editor Martin Reynolds or the League of Women Voter
