Dear Lacrosse Families:
A new year is upon us, which means that DHS lacrosse season is almost
here!
One of our major fundraising efforts is to line up corporate sponsors and
we
need your help. Below is a suggested email that you can use to send
to
existing or potential sponsors, as well as an attached flyer that
explains
the detail. Our goal is to get all corporate sponsors lined up this
month
so please send this to your contacts - companies you do business with,
your
employer, your lawn service - basically any business with a Dunwoody
connection that you patronize or that you think would be interested
in
supporting a good cause and getting a great promotional package in
the
process.
Thanks for your help.
Bob Pile and Jim Morris

Dear ________:
I am writing to let you know about corporate sponsorship opportunities
with
Dunwoody Lacrosse.
Dunwoody High School's lacrosse team had a great season in 2014 and
is
quickly building from a new program into an established one. We have a
new
coach in 2015 (Michael Sopko), who also is a new teacher at Dunwoody
High
School and a former player on one of the top college lacrosse teams in
the
country. Long story short, there is a lot of excitement in Dunwoody
about
the lacrosse program at DHS.
With our team's growth comes expense, and we are offering corporate
sponsorships to help fund some of our needed items. For instance, in
2015
we are in need of new helmets and uniforms, which are a significant
expense
and are not provided by the school or within the scope of players'
dues.
Our team also incurs transportation expenses for tournaments and the cost
of
training gear and field maintenance, among other things.
As a sponsor, you get significant exposure to our team families, our
spectators, and the entire DHS community, through print and
electronic
media, as well as announcements at our games. Our sponsorships are
very
affordable too, with a Bronze Level sponsorship only $250 and
Presenting
Sponsor level, with our highest level of promotion, only $1,500. Details
on
sponsorships are set out in the attached flyer.
Please let me know if we can include you in our list of sponsors for
the
2015 DHS lacrosse season! We appreciate your support!
Sincerely,
