The Hertz Corporation renews sponsorship of Men’s APTA Regional Championships and Presidents’ Cup
Source: Paddle Talk, Vol. 4 No. 2 (January)
The previous year’s events had been highly successful. The agreement again called for Hertz sponsorship of the APTA Regional Championships (this year with the addition of the new Region V), as well as the Presidents’ Cup. Once again Hertz agreed to underwrite travel expenses for the regional teams to the Presidents’ Cup and the cost of a Presidents’ Reception.
The Minutes of the APTA Executive Committee August 22-23, 1979 reflected the fact that Hertz decided in the summer not to continue sponsorship for the following season (1979=1980) because of the gas crunch.
