SAVE THE DATE! The 33rd Annual Jambalaya Jam, benefiting Capital Area United Way and sponsored by Shell
will be held VIRTUALLY on Thursday, October 22!
This year, there will be three ways to participate as a team in the Virtual Jambalaya Jam:
1. COOKING BEFORE VIRTUAL EVENT
Not able to cook on the actual Jam Virtual date - Thursday, October 22nd - no worries, your team can participate before the date! Teams will have the opportunity to participate any time between now and Wednesday, October 20th and will still be featured in the virtual event. If your team is able to sell the jambalaya to either their employees, staff and/or public to benefit CAUW, any proceeds will count as points for the Fan Favorite Award (see Award section in the sponsorship packet linked below).
2. COOKING DAY OF VIRTUAL EVENT
If you are able to cook on the actual Jam Virtual date - Thursday, October 22nd our team will provide live feeds and video from your actual event. If your team is able to sell the jambalaya to either their employees, staff and/or public to benefit CAUW, any proceeds will count as points for the Fan Favorite Award (see Award section in the sponsorship linked below) and promotion can be worked into the Virtual Jam (if applicable).
3. CANNOT PARTICIPATE AS A COOKING TEAM BUT AS A SPONSOR
Unable to cook because of company restrictions, but would like to be included as a sponsor- our CAUW team will work with you to highlight your company during the Virtual Jam! Ideas include: shout out from last years team, a teaser for next year, fun competition that you held during the week to celebrate the Jam, etc.
More information can be found in our 2020 Jambalaya Jam Sponsorship Packet. You can register for the Virtual Jambalaya Jam at www.cauw.org/virtualjam.
