For the second year in a row, the ATA is proud to partner with Mossy Oak as a title sponsor of The Connections Celebration at the 2024 ATA Show in St. Louis, January 11-13, 2024. Connections is the main event of the ATA Show and takes place on opening night, January 11, at 6 pm in the America’s Ballroom at the American’s Center. All Show attendees are invited to attend.
“We are grateful for Mossy Oak’s continued support and look forward to welcoming them back as the presenting sponsor of Connections Celebration,” said Jeff Poole, ATA President and CEO. “Connections is the highlight of the ATA Show each year, featuring food, drink, entertainment and most importantly, great company. It’s only fitting that Mossy Oak, a brand that is synonymous with archery and bowhunting, would join us in creating an unmissable event for Show attendees.”
Chris Paradise, Senior Vice President and Director of Sales for Mossy Oak Enterprise Brands, said the sponsorship demonstrates their dedication to archery and bowhunting, and the Mossy Oak team is excited to celebrate with ATA members.
“Mossy Oak is pleased to extend our partnership with ATA in 2024,” Paradise said. “Our flagship sponsorship of Connections is just one way we continue to support not only our industry but all of our valued customers. We look forward to seeing you all in St. Louis in 2024!”
The Connections Celebration provides an opportunity for attendees to connect with like-minded retailers, manufacturers, ATA staff and business professionals while enjoying drinks, food, games and entertainment. The event is a perfect way to meet new contacts, gather new knowledge, and share practical knowledge with your new friends. In addition to the great entertainment, ATA Awards will be given out for the best new products and those that make a significant impact on the archery community.
