File - Michael J. Cerroni Memorial 5K Run/Walk
Dear Sponsor,
The Michael J. Cerroni Memorial Foundation is now preparing for the 5th Annual
Michael J. Cerroni
Memorial 5K Run/Walk
This year’s run will be held on June 28th, 2015 in the Village of Black River, New York.
Carthage Central High School Graduate and USMC Captain Michael J. Cerroni lived every day to the fullest. In
his short life, he continuously personified great fortitude and drive. Following the loss of Michael in a 2006
snowmobile accident, The Michael J. Cerroni Memorial Scholarship was established in his honor.
Thanks to the generosity of organizations such as yours, The Michael J. Cerroni Foundation, Inc. annually awards
two graduating Carthage Central High School Seniors (one male & one female) with a $1,000 scholarship each to
assist with post-high school plans (college, military, vocational, etc.). Award recipients are decided based on a
variety of criteria including an explanation of what the word “Fortitude” means to them.
Please join in our efforts by becoming a Sponsor and making a donation to benefit the Michael J. Cerroni
Scholarship fund. Full details of all Sponsorship options available are included with this letter. (Donations and
Logo must be received prior to print deadlines in order to be included on promotional products as outlined in the
Sponsorship tiers.)
