Lancaster Parent Teacher Organization (PTO)
February 15, 2018
Dear Local Business,
On​ ​May 19, 2018 at 9:30 AM the Lancaster PTO will be hosting the 2nd Annual 5K Fun Run/Walk in memory of Sam Pawlak. Samuel Pawlak passed away in May of 2015 after a courageous battle with ALS, or "Lou Gehrig's Disease." Sam's life was dedicated to community, family, education, and sports. Sam served the community in many ways, including being a beloved teacher, school administrator, principal at Nashoba Regional High School, and later principal of Luther Burbank Middle School in Lancaster.
A 5K Fun Run/Walk in Sam's name seems a very appropriate way to honor his memory and the many contributions he made to the Nashoba community. A portion of the proceeds will go towards establishing a scholarship fund in his name. The scholarship will be given out to a Nashoba Regional High School senior who exemplifies Sam’s passion for athletics and academics.
Since 1988 the Lancaster PTO has served the children, parents, and teachers within the Lancaster schools through the monies it has raised with the help of businesses such as yours. By supporting our fun run, you will enable the PTO to successfully continue in its endeavor to provide students with culturally enriching programs, teachers with needed classroom items, classes with field trips provided at reduced rate, and families with low-cost, fun events designed to be both educational and entertaining.
The Lancaster PTO is reaching out to you in hopes that your company will support our event financially. We have included an acquisition form that allows your business to choose a level of sponsorship. Sponsors have the opportunity to be listed on the racer’s t shirts, route markers, official posters and advertisements.
We ask that all donations be received by April 14, 2018. Please print exactly how you would like your name or business to appear, or include a business card.
If you have any questions please contact Mandy Cannon at acannon8199@gmail.com. On behalf of the Lancaster PTO, we thank you in advance for your gracious support.
Best Regards, The Sam Pawlak 5K Committee
