This post goes out to all of our runners for the Pittsburgh Marathon. You guys are truly awesome. You can see the whole team by clicking here. A special thank you goes out to Ron Weber. He introduced us to signing up as a charity for CTS and has brought in over $500 worth of pledges thus far. Thanks RON! Ron is pretty serious about the marathon and The Call to Serve. He even got a tattoo to show how pumped he is.

Looking for Marathon Sponsors

If your company or you know of anyone that would be interested in giving some type of sponsorship to CTS for the Pittsburgh Marathon, please let us know.

Company will be featured as a sponsor on our fleet of R.V.’s this summer, and will be recognized on our online local volunteer calendar. In addition, you will receive a copy of our 2009-2010 Annual Report which will highlight your support. Your logo and/or name will also be included on our t-shirts for the Pittsburgh Marathon. This will lead to some great exposure with the Pittsburgh Marathon expected to bring in over 15,000 runners plus thousands of non-runners. Contact adam@thecalltoserve.org if interested.

CTS Meets the Pittsburgh Marathon

You heard it here. We are running the Pittsburgh Marathon (just the half) and are registered as an affiliate charity. It’s kind of a big deal, we think. We need runners. It’s a great way to get involved and it’s for a good cause. You do not have to run full marathon. You can do a half or a relay with 5 other people. We are asking our runners to pledge $200. This number is not set in stone. If you are unable to raise that amount, we still want to run with you. Support is raised through family and friends. Fundraising deadline is April 1st. We will send you sample letters to send out. It’s pretty simple. If interested please contact ">adam@thecalltoserve.org ASAP. By registering with The Call to Serve at pittsburghmarathon.com (register code: SERVE2010), you are guranteed:

ENTRY INTO MARATHON (Official Dick’s Sporting Goods Pittsburgh Marathon bib number)
INVITATION TO PRE-MARATHON PASTA DINNER (the night before the marathon)
PRIORITY RACE PACKET PICK-UP (marathon weekend – no standing in lines!)
RACE-DAY SUPPORT (Includes area to meet before race, food and water, cheering groups,
complimentary post-race massage and more)

To Motivate you, we made this Video. Enjoy.
