Solar Bat Performance Sunglasses Supports College Level Anglers
SAN ANTONIO, TX (January 20, 2020) – A new calendar year is underway, and Solar Bat Performance Sunglasses is continuing their support of the Association of Collegiate Anglers and Bass Pro Shops Collegiate Bass Fishing Series throughout the 2019-2020 season. Solar Bat joined the college fishing arena during the summer of 2019, and attended the 2019 Boat US Collegiate Bass Fishing Championship presented by Bass Pro Shops. Solar Bat sponsored a session at the 2019 Bass Pro Shops Big Bass Bash, and products have been featured in prize packages awarded at events.
Solar Bat owner and optometrist Dr. Gary Nesty says, “When I was offered the opportunity to align Solar Bat Sunglasses as a sponsor of ACA, I was more than delighted to accept. Collegiate bass fishing is at the heart of the future of our sport and it is an honor to be involved with such a fine organization.”
An industry leader since 1994, Solar Bat’s mission statement is to design, develop, and market high-quality sunglasses at affordable price points – with eye protection and eye safety being at the forefront. Through their exceptional customer service and versatility in performance sunglasses, Solar Bat will both support and positively impact the youth anglers involved in college fishing.
Through the partnership with the ACA, Solar Bat provides numerous benefits to anglers competing in the tournament series. Anglers fishing in Bass Pro Shops Collegiate Bass Fishing Series events are automatically eligible for a 30% discount on Solar Bat sunglass products. Solar Bat also offers partnerships with participating schools. When a team signs on to join this program, team members will wear the Solar Bat logo on their jerseys, and in turn become eligible to receive a 60% product discount.
