Dear Sponsor,
Saint Pius X Church is excited to announce the Second Annual Flyin’ Lion 5K, a community building event for the parish and the greater Granger community! Last year’s inaugural event was extremely successful with over 350 participants and dozens of spectators and supporters. In addition to a timed 5K race, this event will also feature a 1 mile fun run/walk, as well as post-race celebrations – all a part of the annual weekend festivities celebrating the feast day of our patron and namesake, Saint Pius X. The event will be held on Saturday, August 26, 2017 and will start and end at Saint Pius X Catholic Church. The 5K race will start at 8:00 a.m. The 1 mile fun run/walk will begin immediately following the start of the 5K.
This year’s race will support the youth and young adult pilgrims from the Saint Pius X Parish community planning to travel to Panamá to participate in World Youth Day 2019 with Pope Francis. World Youth Day is the largest gathering of young Catholics in the world. The Flyin’ Lion 5K provides an exciting opportunity for the parish, school, and local community to come together in an active way while providing financial support to the World Youth Day Pilgrims.
We are inviting you to participate in the Saint Pius X Flyin’ Lion 5K as a corporate sponsor to help defray the cost of organizing and hosting the event. There are several sponsorship levels available (click HERE). The exposure to the over 3,100 parish families (over 10,000 individuals) and the greater Michiana community and the excitement prior to and on race day is certain to be positive for you and your business.
Thank you, in advance, for your consideration of becoming a race sponsor. At the links to the right, you will find a list of sponsorship opportunities and a sponsorship form that can be completed and submitted by mail no later than Friday, July 21, 2017. If you have any questions, please contact Betsy Quinn, Director of Stewardship and Evangelization, at bquinn@stpius.net or 574-272-8462, ext. 115.
Sincerely yours,
Rev. William C. Schooler
Pastor
