2018 Event
Dear Prospective Sponsor:
We would like to invite you to join the sponsorship ranks for the 2nd Fort Town Night Run on May 5, 2018.
The SKBP Venturers are hosting this 1K, 5k & 10k race event. The courses will take runners and walkers on a tour of Prescott’s historical buildings and landmarks, as well as our beautiful waterfront and inviting residential streets. The event starts and ends at Fort Wellington, and includes live music, food, and a celebration for the whole community. I’m confident that you will recognize the benefits from our event. In our first year, we greeted 225 participants and raised over $3,000 for the youth.
Venturers are the oldest members of Scouts Canada youth, for ages 14-18. The SKBP group includes Spencerville, Kemptville, Brockville, Prescott and surrounding area. The Venturer program offers opportunities to camp, learn survival skills, develop citizenship, become physically active, and travel. It also encourages youth to become active and engaged members of their community, through volunteerism and leadership opportunities.
The Fort Town Night Run is an incredible opportunity to promote our region. Race participants often come from outside of the community to participate in unique events. They bring their tourism dollars to eat and shop at local establishments, and share positive experiences with their colleagues back home. SKBP is working in partnership with Fort Wellington, the Town of Prescott, the township of Edwardsburg/ Cardinal, and the United Counties of Leeds and Grenville to make this an annual signature tourism event. Bringing in out-of-town guests benefits the businesses and residents of our community.
The benefits of sponsorship are many and vary by level of gift. Starting in June, we plan to begin selling tickets for a multi-prize raffle to be drawn on December 18th. As we sell the tickets, the website will provide an opportunity for visitors to click and directly go to each sponsors’ designated webpage. When the winners are drawn, their name and the ticket number will be matched to the winning prize on the website. Sponsors may also provide financial donations. Everyone wins for a worthy cause!
More information about the race, benefits of sponsorship, and information about the charity that we support are enclosed here and on our website. We hope that you will take a moment to review this information and decide to support the Fort Town Night Run for its 2nd Anniversary. Call me with any questions.
Sincere regards,
Michel Larose
