GREENSBORO, N.C. – TIMCO Aviation Services has signed a multi-year agreement to continue its role as the title sponsor of the TIMCO Invitational presented by New Bridge Bank, it was announced today.

“We are excited to extend our sponsorship after a successful launch of the relationship with the 2012 tournament,” said Kevin Carter, CEO of TIMCO. “Our affiliation gives us an opportunity to introduce TIMCO and the growing Triad aviation industry to young people, their parents and the community. As the aviation industry continues to expand, we want people to recognize they can consider aerospace for a potential career in their own hometown.”

The transition to our new title sponsor was seamless, and working with TIMCO just felt natural. Now that we have a long-term agreement with them, we can focus on new enhancements to make our event even more exciting each year. I know I can speak for everyone at the Greensboro Sports Council when I say we look forward to a long-term relationship with TIMCO.”

  1. Why are we trying to make the TIMCO EVENT bigger than what it is when the competition has not been remotely close to what they are trying to promote especially on the girls side.
