HOUGHTON
COLLEGE AT KINGDOM BOUND
HOUGHTON, N.Y.
—Houghton College assumed the role as a title sponsor of western New York’s
premier Christian music festival at Kingdom Bound 2005.
From July 31 to
Aug. 3 Houghton College manned three booths at Six Flags Darien Lake. Giving
away t-shirts, cinch bags, wristbands, Houghton baseball cards and three
laptop computers, Houghton College was present throughout the theme park.
“Houghton’s
sponsorship of Kingdom Bound gives us tremendous visibility leading up to,
during and after the event itself,” said Vice President for Enrollment
Management Tim Fuller. “It was a thrill to gain this kind of visibility for
Houghton while supporting a tremendous ministry like Kingdom Bound."
During the
festival over 4,800 students entering grades seven through 12 filled out a
reply card requesting information about Houghton College. Additionally
several hundred pastors, youth leaders and potential transfer students gave
their contact information to Houghton.
