Dear Chamber Members,

The Perry Area Chamber of Commerce along with the Perry Dogwood Festival Committee announces the 20^th Annual Perry Dogwood Festival to be held on Saturday & Sunday, April 12^th & 13^th, 2008.  This event has become a well-known springtime event for the Perry area and we need your help and support to continue this exciting Perry tradition. The 20^th Annual Perry Dogwood Festival will include many wonderful events, as in the past. Events we’re planning to have this year include:  the Arts and Crafts Show, the 5K/1 mile Run/Walk sponsored by Houston Healthcare Complex, the Dogwood Pageant sponsored by the Perry High School Cheerleaders, a Pancake Breakfast sponsored by the Perry Kiwanis Club, Dessert Contest, Perry Idol, local downtown entertainment, and outstanding food vendors. There will also be children’s activities and games in Downtown Perry. As you can see, this will be an event the entire community will enjoy!

Click here to make a gracious tax deductible pledge to sponsor this year’s 20th Annual Perry Dogwood Festival. Only through sponsorships like this, is the Chamber able to fund an event that the entire community will enjoy. We plan to use many forms of media to promote the festival, including billboards, radio, newspapers, and our own Perry Dogwood Festival website. Attached you will find a sponsorship sign-up sheet describing the different levels with the benefits and advantages of being one of our sponsors. To ensure all your sponsorship benefits, please return the attached form by Friday, February 1, 2008. You may or may not plan to attend the festival, but you can utilize this opportunity to show your support for the Chamber and the community while marketing your business. It’s a win, win situation! Don’t forget that the members are the Chamber.

We are hopeful that you will choose to become part of this event, and we look forward to hearing from you as soon as possible. Thanks in advance for your help and support of the Perry Area Chamber of Commerce.

Sincerely,

Maggie Jenkins
