The following companies have partnered with the 2008 Reach the Beach Relay. Their generous support is a critical part of what makes this event so successful.

Please make every effort to support these companies through out the year as you gear up for the 10th running of the Reach the Beach Relay.

Our mission is to equip people to make a difference in their world. We do this by creating outstanding products and by trying to make a difference in the communities where we live and work.

Places like this are usually for talking about the year some company was founded, how many people it employs, and why the particular kind of thing it makes is without a doubt the best in the universe.

We're a big company made up of a lot of small parts and incredibly talented people. We make boots, shoes, clothes and gear that are comfortable enough to wear all day and rugged enough for all year. We don't rest on our accomplishments. If we did, we'd only have ever made one waterproof leather boot.

Our place in this world is bigger than the things we put in it. So we volunteer in our communities. Making new products goes hand in hand with making things better. That means reducing our carbon footprint and being as environmentally responsible as we can.

We love every minute we spend outdoors, and we work hard to create things that make that experience better in every way.

New Balance: New Balance began as a Boston-based arch support company in the early 1900's, developed into a specialized shoe manufacturer in the 1970's, and has grown to become a leading global athletic products company. Today New Balance is a family of brands including New Balance, Dunham, PF Flyers, Aravon, Warrior and Brine.

Since the days of selling arch supports to police officers and waiters, New Balance has been a brand concerned with meeting the needs of the everyday athlete. In pursuing this goal, we developed an "Endorsed By No One" philosophy, which holds that a superior product will sell itself better than any superstar athlete ever could. Part of producing superior footwear and athletic apparel is manufacturing it to fit all widths and sizes, because a better fit produces better performance.

To ensure the best fitting, best performing shoes and apparel, we focus on improving our technology and production methods. A big part of that is maintaining five manufacturing facilities here in the United States where we continue to produce shoes and apparel that meet the standards we've employed for 100 years. We have also remained committed to a core set of values that include integrity, teamwork and total customer satisfaction.

If you're looking for a Coke or some Moxie in the upper half of New England, there's a good chance you'll get it from Coca-Cola Bottling Co. of Northern New England. The company distributes Coca-Cola, Monarch, and Moxie as well as other soft drinks to thousands of outlets throughout Maine, northeastern Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and northern Vermont. (Moxie remains a cult favorite in New England and especially in Maine, where it was invented in 1876.) The company, a subsidiary of Japan's Kirin Brewery, is one of the top Coca-Cola bottlers in the US.

We’re happy once again to be partnering with Enterprise who will be offering rental discounts to all of the year’s RTB participants including our own race staff.
