Sponsorship Opportunities

It’s our anniversary. It’s hard to believe the 2024 Trek with be our 10th Annual T-Bird Trek! Time flies when you are having fun and have awesome partnerships!

Whether your sponsorship ability is monetary, in-kind, volunteerism, or swag — we are grateful, and our students are thankful. Last year, the Trek netted nearly $9,700, which helps to support scholarships and alumni initiatives at Casper College. Plus, we had 336 participants, a new record for the T-Bird Trek.

The T-Bird Trek promises excellent exposure for our sponsors while raising money to help our students attain their educational and professional goals. Please do not hesitate to contact me at 307-268-2325 or ann.dalton@caspercollege.edu if you want additional information.

We hope to see you, your colleagues, and your company’s logo on the course.

Spend a fall morning with us at Casper College and support students while you do it! 

Proceeds from the T-Bird Trek support scholarships for Casper College students, institutional grants, and alumni programs.

There is a Trek Course for EVERYONE!

Whether you walk or run, there is always a crowd to cheer you through the race, delicious breakfast burritos to feed you after your race, and recovery time by the fire pit. Get involved through one of the events listed below:

  • 5K on campus that you can run/walk at your own pace.
  • 10k that will get your heart pumping
