The Head of the Hooch is the southeast’s premier head race and the third largest regatta in the country. In 2021 ‘The Hooch’ attracted athletes ranging from youth to collegiate to active adults from 40+ states. Your partnership with ‘The Hooch’ allows you to expand your reach beyond the local venue. 96% of the competitors arrive from the south central, mid-west as well as the extended southeastern US.
Rowers are dedicated and driven at the youth and collegiate level and convert that enthusiasm and energy into the leaders of tomorrow. Sponsorship gives your company the opportunity to position and brand your message to a devoted, influential and captive audience all gathered at one location, Ross’s Landing on the Tennessee River waterfront, for easy access and extended messaging for this two-day weekend event at what is widely regarded as the nation’s friendliest and most welcoming regatta.
TITLE SPONSOR
Tennessee Valley Authority has partnered with Friends of the Hooch as the inaugural Title Sponsor.
The Tennessee Valley Authority provides electricity for 153 local power companies serving 10 million people in Tennessee and parts of six surrounding states. TVA also provides flood control, navigation and land management for the Tennessee River system, and assists local power companies and regional governments with their economic development efforts.
The mission of TVA is just as relevant today as it was nearly nine decades ago when Congress created TVA: harness the potential of the rich resources in the Tennessee Valley region to make life better for the people who call it home. We are inspired daily to pursue new ideas and innovative solutions to improve our service to you. The 10,000 employees of TVA form an experienced, talented team committed — each and every day — to improving the quality of life for the approximately 10 million people we serve.
