| Relay For Life Sponsors
Needed |
|
We invite you to join
the Cape Coral community in the continuing battle against
cancer as a 2008 Sponsor for the American Cancer Society's
Relay for Life. This event will provide an effective way for
you to reach your market while helping create awareness about
cancer.
May we count on your
corporate support this year? Over the last six (6) years, with
the help of our sponsors and the community, the Cape Coral
Relay raised
$ 1,092,316.00 for the fight against
cancer.
The American Cancer
Society conducts Relay for Life throughout the United States.
Six years ago Relay for Life became the country's biggest
single fundraising event. Relay for Life is not just about
raising dollars: the aspect of community, survivorship and
caring is a combination unique to the American Cancer
Society.
This year's event will
be held at Mariner High School on April 4&5, 2008. The
theme is "Movie Magic". Cancer survivors are invited to
begin the Relay by walking the Survivor's Lap. Then members of
the teams take the track throughout the entire 18 hours. A
Luminary Ceremony is held where candles are lit in remembrance
of those who have lost their battle with cancer and in honor
of survivors.
Please look over the
enclosed materials by clicking here.
We
are looking to finalize our sponsorship commitments by
December 31, 2007. If you wish to contact us, please call
936-1113, ext. 113. |

What is
the organization of a ship? First see the
organizational chart.
Basically, the ship is run and organized by the Sea
Scouts with the overall guidance and assistance of the Cape
Coral Power Squadron.
The Power Squadron has appointed a "ship's committee"
that provides this guidance and assistance to the Sea Scout's
skipper. The
skipper is the key officer of the Sea Scouts Ship. The skipper provides
advise and direction to the Boatswain and the Sea Scouts who
actually plan and conduct the program.
When will
we meet Depending on the
Sea Scouts availability, the current plan is to meet on the
1st and 3rd Monday of every month from
7-9 PM.
Parents:
We encourage
parents to join the Power Squadron, participate in the
Boat Smart course, interact with the Sea Scouting initiative
and to participate in the Power Squadron educational and
social activities.

Chamber Certificates.Com
Mike "Q"
Quaintance, President
The Chamber of Commerce
of Cape Coral announces its newest Member Service, Chamber
Certificates.com. The Chamber Certificate Program was created
to aid our Cape Coral Chamber members in marketing their
products and services while providing an opportunity for
participation in the Cape Coral Chamber
Foundation.
The Cape Coral Chamber
Foundation exists for one purpose, the betterment of our
community. We do this through providing high school
scholarships, school awards programs, supporting school needs,
leadership programs, and building an enhanced gateway to our
community.
The Chamber Certificate
Program works like this. Chamber members post discount
certificates on
chambercertificate.com at no cost. Members and the
general public go to chambercertificate.com to purchase those
certificates at 20% of the face value of the offer. In other
words, if a business provides a certificate with a $25 value
toward the purchase of goods or services a person can purchase
the certificate for $5 and obtain a savings of $20 on their
next purchase.
The $5 goes to the Cape
Coral Chamber Foundation and that money is used to fulfill its
mission. The certificate is purchased online using PayPal. The
certificate is printed with a unique number for redemption at
the member providing the offer.
The member is notified
of the purchase immediately via e-mail. For tracking purposes
that e-mail will also include your contact information and
certificate number.
