30th annual whitey thompson Hike-bike-a-thon
How to participate
1. Complete Front of Hike Bike Packet (students will receive a packet at school or you can pick one up at United Bank of Iowa)
Please provide all information including the Parent/Guardian Signature which is required to participate in the event.
2. Complete the Sponsor Letters
Think of as many people as possible to sponsor your child with a tax deductible donation – aunts, uncles, grandparents, neighbors, friends, etc. Do not assume that someone does not want to donate – send them a sponsor letter and let them decide.
We suggest 15 sponsors per student to get a free t-shirt. There are 16 letters in the packet so you have an extra one. If you need more, you can get them at any United Bank of Iowa or school office. The more letters you send, the more money that will be raised for scholarships. And, your chances increase for winning one of the bikes. For each donation received, the student’s name will be entered in the drawing for several bikes.
3. Return Sponsor Letters to United Bank of Iowa or School
You do not need to contact sponsors personally. Just address the letters to your sponsors and return them to any United Bank of Iowa or school office by March 22. Do NOT mail the letters yourself, we will mail them for you.
