1. If you have never sponsored Mardi Gras before and would like your sponsorship to count toward votes for a candidate couple, you need to give at the $850 level or above in order for your sponsorship to count as votes.

2.Returning Corporate sponsors from the 2007 Mardi Gras will be able to have their entire 2008 sponsorship count as votes for a candidate couple if they increase their sponsorship to the next level.
