Hi Corgi Moms and Dads-
It's that time of year when all of our Corgis smell a parade with their brethren wafting in the air--the 4th annual Corgi Walk in the Pearl.
This year's walk is going to be bigger than last year's and I am looking forward to seeing all of you and your adorable Corgis on Saturday, August 20, 2011. This e-mail is to give you an update of where we are in the planning for the walk and also to ask for sponsorships of the walk.

CALENDAR
This year we have hired THE professional dog photographer in Portland--Alicia Dickerson of Four-Legged Photo (www.fourleggedphoto.com)--to take pictures of the Walk for a 2012 calendar of the 4th annual Corgi Walk in the Pearl. Calendars will cost $10, including shipping and handling.
SPONSORSHIPS
The Corgi Walk in the Pearl is completely dependent on sponsorships to defray the cost of advertising, materials, fabric, photographs. All money from registration and the raffle go directly to Corgi Rescue or DoveLewis. I do not receive any money to organize the walk.
Each sponsor is recognized in a banner at the walk and you/your company or organization will be identified on the DL website. In addition, each sponsor's Corgi will be featured as a Corgi of the month in the calendar and receive a calendar. At this time there are FOUR slots (months) available for the calendar. A sponsorship is $200. I would greatly appreciate if you would consider sponsoring the Walk.
Alicia Dickerson of Four Legged Photo will take the individual picture of your Corgi for the calendar.
I look forward to hearing from you. I will be back in touch in August before the Walk.
Best regards,
Lynde
