SMARTBOX of San Antonio was proud to sponsor the 2008 American Diabetes Association’s Tour De Cure.  The American Diabetes Association’s Tour de Cure is a one and/or two day bicycle race from San Antonio to Austin via San Marcos, Texas.  This year’s race, put on by the South and Central Tour de Cure division, raised over $500,000 with over 1300 participating cyclists.

This is the second year that SMARTBOX of San Antonio has participated in the Tour de Cure.  In the past, SMARTBOX has provided storage and transportation for water and other goods needed during the race.  Smartboxes have also been stacked two high to serve as anchors for the balloon start and finish lines in San Antonio, San Marcos and Austin.

“We have really enjoyed our partnership with the American Diabetes Association.  As a family owned and operated, San Antonio business it is important for us to give back to the community and donation our Smartboxes for the Tour de Cure has given us an ideal opportunity to do that,” said Jim Plumhoff, president and co-owner of SMARTBOX San Antonio.
