Business Improvement District (BID) Meetings
The Greater Sedona Chamber of Commerce & Tourism Bureau, together with numerous hotel/resort properties, have formed the voluntary Greater Sedona Business Improvement District (BID).
The BID is a way of funding business-focused marketing programs to help increase overall revenue for all businesses in Sedona and the surrounding areas.
The founding members of the BID are called “Platinum Partners.” Platinum Partners receive special promotional visibility during the full duration of their BID commitment.
However, all participating hotels and the Chamber believe that the entire business community of Greater Sedona benefits from the efforts of the BID program.
BID meetings are reserved for participants.
For more information on how to become a Platinum Partner and BID participant, please contact Cheryl Barron.

Become a Sponsor – Become a Champion of the Community
Limited Sponsorship Opportunities: Given the nature of this event, opportunities for sponsorship are limited, a win-win for both sponsors and participants. Sponsors stand out because you are not just a number at the race; you are a champion of community events that positively drive the economy. The sponsor’s recognition will reach beyond the regional area to the state, national, and international visitors to Sedona. Click Run the Runway Sponsorship Prospectus or email Shanandoah Sterling, Events Director or Jonathon Gammill, Sales Director for more details and how to become a sponsor.
