Good Afternoon & Happy Friday, [[First Name|Friend]]!
Thank you so much for joining Team CASA at the Baltimore Running Festival to support Maryland's abused and neglected children! We're happy to report that Team CASA will be over 190 Superheroes strong this year!
Now that we have our team assembled, it's time for us to shift our focus to fundraising. So far, we have raised $35,710, nearly 65% of our goal of $55,000! We are well on our way to achieving our goal but we need your help in getting there.
If you haven't started fundraising yet, now is a great time! Not sure where to start? It's easy! When you registered for Team CASA you were set up with a personal fundraising page. Personalize that page by logging into your HQ, set a fundraising goal, add a photo of yourself and even a short message about why you joined Team CASA. Then, share that link on Facebook, Twitter, or in an email to family and friends! For a quick and easy way to raise $250, click here.
We’ve put together some great prize packages for our top fundraisers, as well as incentives to encourage all of our team members to reach their fundraising goals. Stay tuned for more details!
A few other things of note:
- Yesterday, race organizers Corrigan Sports released their Runner Handbook. THIS IS A VERY IMPORTANT DOCUMENT that outlines everything that you need to know before, during, and after race day.
- Our tent location has moved from M&T Bank Stadium to Rash Field near the Inner Harbor (View Map). Come by in the morning for a quick bite to eat, a pre-race warm up and team photo, store your personal items and pick up your Team CASA race shirt (if you requested one). Come back after your race for great food and drink (including beer and mimosas!), fun activities and prizes!
- The Running Festival EXPO is taking place on Thursday and Friday (10/19 & 10/20) at the Convention Center in Baltimore (this information is covered in your Runner Handbook). This is where you retrieve your runner packet & bib. All runners MUST pick up their bibs from the Expo so please plan ahead. As an added fundraising incentive, we offer to pick-up runner packets for runners who raise $250 or more! Stay tuned for more information from us and Corrigan as we approach race day.
If you have any questions, need some help in boosting your fundraising efforts or want to learn how the money you raise will help CASA, give us a call at 410-828-6761.
Thank you again - and have a great weekend!
Your friends at Maryland CASA!
