Advertise in Our 2010 Event Program
For the last 31 years, the Kiwanis Club of Camarillo has held the George M. Thayer Scholarship Fund 5K/10K Run. This race raises thousands of dollars every year which is used to fund scholarships to qualifying Camarillo high school graduates going on to college.
Every year, with the exception of the 2009 race, we’ve produced a program for the event and sold advertising to local businesses. Last year, we added online advertising on our web site. This year, we will be providing both print and online advertising opportunities for local businesses.
Advertising revenue from our event program goes towards the costs of the event and scholarship funds, as do the event fees charged to runners. Local businesses enjoy the exposure they receive in our program, as well, which is viewed by hundreds of runners and others involved in the race.
If you would like to advertise your local business in our 2010 race program, please contact us at online@kiwanisclubofcamarillo.com. The race will be held April 10, 2010.
Peanut Day November 14, 2009
Every year, the Kiwanis Club of Camarillo has its annual Peanut Day to raise funds for our charitable works. Through our exclusive supplier, we purchase cases of nuts to hand out for free on Peanut Day in front of local stores. Passers-by are encouraged to make donations to Kiwanis in the process.
This year’s Peanut Day is November 14, 2009. This is a one-day event and once the nuts have all been handed out, it’s over until next year.
This November 14, 2009, if you’re out and about and see a Kiwanis volunteer handing out nuts, please think of the good work we do to change the world one child and one community at a time and make a charitable donation. We are a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that performs community service work for the benefit of the citizens of Camarillo.
If you are a Kiwanis member and are available to volunteer on Peanut Day, please contact Joe Dilibert or Ted Williams. Their contact information is on our Service Projects page.
