4th Annual Road Race Offers High Visibility Sponsorship Opportunities for Your Business

The Yarmouth Police Relief Association invites you to sponsor its 4th annual road race, the YPD Blue 5K – Run for a Reason on Sunday, May 15, 2011.

This run-walk race will benefit:

• The National Law Enforcement Memorial Fund, with special recognition of Woburn Patrol Officer John McGuire, killed in the line of duty on December 26, 2010.

• The Town of Yarmouth Flax Pond Recreation Center Building Project.

• The Dennis-Yarmouth Regional High School Girls Hockey Team.

• Tourette Syndrome Association Summer Camp Fund

Your sponsorship will provide high visibility advertising and promotion of your business before, during, and after the race event among runners, walkers and their families and friends – all great prospects for your products and services!

To generate awareness and drive registrations and spectators, we are heavily promoting this race via local print and radio media, New England running clubs and running web sites, to previous race participants, and through local schools, community organizations, and statewide police agencies.

Last year’s event drew nearly 500 registered runners and walkers, scores of spectators and received prominent pre-race and post-race local media coverage!
