not just an event....an experience
RELAY FOR SHELETER IS NOT JUST AN EVENT.......AN EXPERIENCE...support the operations and our youth programs at Shelter House.
Getting Started
The RELAY FOR SHELTER is not only a fundraiser; it's also a lot fun. The RELAY FOR SHELTER welcomes participants of all ages....you do not have to be a runner or even be athletic, just be ready for some hours of wacky activities, friendly competition and good, clean fun.
With a captain leading the way, teams of any number of colleagues, family and friends sign up and fundraise. Registration fee is $15.00 per (adult) and (children 18 & under) $10.00 which includes t-shirt, picnic lunch, along with entry to the days events. We ask each (adult) participant to raise $125.00 and children under 18 are encouraged to raise $100.00. Teams can hold car washes, BBQS, chili cook-off, 50/50 draws and other creative fundraising events, and all pledges of $10.00 or more are tax receipted. Teams can be made up of anyone who likes to have fun and who will help raise much needed $$$ & awareness about Shelter House.
Then on June 4th, 2011 at Chippewa Park we're going to celebrate your efforts from 9:00 am to closing ceremonies starting at 7:00 pm with the best funfest picnic you will ever be a part of, featuring team games, sporting events, entertainment, awards, bonfire and more....
So grab your craziest co-workers, relatives and friends, elect two members to be Captain and Co-Captain and start fundraising in support of the operations of Shelter House! Deposit your money by June 3rd at any TD Canada Trust Bank, Note: All pledge forms are to be handed in to Rotary Shelter House - set up is Friday, June 03rd at noon or Saturday morning the day of the event for your team tent or cabin site at Chippewa Park and let us throw a huge Picnic in your honour! At the end of the day you go home to sleep with a smile on your face 'cause not only have you just had a wicked good time but in the process you've helped the men, women, youth & families that use our services in our community.
Remember the time and spirit you give us not only ensures that everyone involved has fun, safe and a memorable RELAY FOR SHELTER, but also helps us with our mission.
Note: Team members are not required to stay on site throughout the day, but everyone will be having so much fun they won't want to leave. There will be a bonfire (tentative) after the awards presentation and closing ceremonies beginning at 7:00 pm on Saturday.
