SPONSOR OUR EVENTS

SHOWCASE YOUR BRAND

Why should you sponsor one, or all, of our events?

As a 501(c)3 non-profit, The 906 Adventure Team’s sole purpose is to make an impact on our community. Unlike those other events, we’re not owned by a publicly-held corporation, or charging $650 for a day of adventure. We’re trying to change lives, not bank account balances.

Our event participants know this, and they sell out all of our events, sometimes in minutes (Marji Gesick) other times in hours (Polar Roll) but they do sell out. At the time of this writing all we have available is a handful of 100 bike, and some running slots open for The Crusher, and those too will sell out.

Our audience vocally support the brands that support our events. Our sponsors often go out of the way to tell us that our racers make an impact on their business.

When you sign up for the Marji Gesick mailing list

It’s all about community.

906 Adventure Team is a 501c3 Non-Profit based in Marquette, Michigan. Since 2014 we have been creating outdoor adventure experiences for youth through Adventure Bike Club and events like Polar Roll, The Crusher, and Marji Gesick. Our take on life is pretty simple – it’s an adventure. In life (and adventure) stuff doesn’t always go to plan. Things go wrong. Bad things happen to good people and you don’t overcome it by complaining or pointing fingers. The truth is adversity brings out the best of us – by taking us down unknown paths to find it.

906 Adventure Team uses revenue from the events to support trail organizations and create more youth Adventure Teams.

The Marji Gesick will donate $27,000 to local trails this year, bringing total trail donations since 2015 to $216,000.

In 2022, with the help of corporate partners, we invested $40,000 in youth programs for three new Adventure Team communities. Resilience, confidence, community, and a sense of belonging have never been more important than it is for kids today. Adventure Teams help them “find their people”, the way you feel like you’ve found yours at Marji.

We want you to know when you support 906 Adventure Team and the events you’re making life better here in Marquette County and in communities across the Midwest.
