Follow Bo Jaxson’s Example & Run Like Crazy
At last year’s 31st Annual George M. Thayer 5K/10K Run, held by the Kiwanis Club of Camarillo, local radio personality Bo Jaxson participated as part of a publicity stunt wearing a wedding dress from Camarillo Bridal, accompanied by “bridesmaids” from the local store.
This year, the 32nd Annual George M. Thayer 5K/10K Run, to be held April 10, 2010, is accompanied by the 1st Annual Crazy Publicity Stunt Contest, where your company can enter a team of runners in crazy costumes and/or carrying crazy props for your own social media extravaganza. Click here for official rules and entry form.
So long as you keep it safe and family friendly, your team of up to five runners can participate in our 5K run, take videos and pictures, and use it for your social media marketing. The Kiwanis Club of Camarillo will also be video recording the various teams and posting clips on our blog where members of the community will be able to vote for their favorite team.
Your Publicity Stunt Contest entries must be received no later than March 30, 2010, so fill them out and send them in!!! This is a fun and inexpensive way to marketing your business and help the community at the same time. All proceeds from the run go to the George M. Thayer Scholarship Fund and other projects carried out by the Kiwanis Club of Camarillo to benefit the children of our community.

Advertiser Info for 5K/10K Run
Every year, local advertisers publish their ads in the event program, web site, and T-shirts for the Kiwanis Club of Camarillo’s George M. Thayer 5K/10K Run. This year, we’ve added some exciting new options, including race route signage, feature articles on our blog, and our 1st Annual Crazy Publicity Stunt Contest.
Race Route Signage – Advertisers will receive a 15″H x 20″W color, laminated, foam board sign that will stand on 18″ metal legs along the race routes. After the race, advertisers will receive their signs for display in their businesses, photographing for their corporate giving materials, etc. The signs will be visible to the hundreds of runners participating in this year’s event as well as passersby along the race route. (The image at left is a mock-up only. Typos have been corrected to the master that will be used for the actual signs for the race.)
Feature Articles – The Kiwanis Club of Camarillo will interview you, write a feature article for our blog about your organization, and promote the feature article via our social media outlets.
