About this file
This is a sponsorship approval email from the Kentucky Office of Procurement Services (OPS) to the Kentucky Historical Society and Tourism, Arts & Heritage Cabinet regarding sponsorship solicitations for the 2027 Kentucky National History Day event. The email chain documents the approval process for two sponsorship solicitations that were submitted by Susan Arvin at the Kentucky Historical Society and Melissa Brewer at the Tourism, Arts & Heritage Cabinet. The sponsorships were reviewed against the state's sponsorship manual and required OPS approval before proceeding. The approval was granted on September 4, 2026, by Stacy Blank, Executive Director of OPS, with the sponsorship documents subsequently directed to OPS reporting for further handling.
The email confirms that the two sponsorship solicitations had been approved and establishes that Julie Brewer from Finance would be available to answer any subsequent questions regarding the sponsorships. The approval process followed standard state procedures requiring a one-business-day review period by OPS, after which the sponsorships could move forward. The email references two attached sponsorship documents related to the 2027 Kentucky National History Day event and indicates that questions regarding posting these as an RFP or the next steps in the sponsorship solicitation process should be directed to the OPS team for procedural guidance.

Hi Stacy, Susan is working as the Finance lead at KY Historical Society since the departure of Karen Marlowe. She was given two sponsorship solicitations that need to go to OPS for approval. We have reviewed the manual on Sponsorships and need to send these to OPS for the one business day to respond with approval, if we don’t hear from them we can move ahead. What email do we send these too?
Second, would these then be posted as an RFP? Would someone on your team be able to walk us through this process.
We appreciate your help, thank you
