”Note to my Father”

 

Dear Friends and Family,

We are thrilled to invite you to participate in our special "Note to My Father" initiative, part of the MKE5K Men's Wellness Walk/Run on Saturday, August 24th at the Deer District. This is a unique opportunity to honor and celebrate the incredible fathers, father figures, and male role models in our lives.

In 250 words or less, we encourage you to write a heartfelt note expressing the love and respect you have for your father or someone like a dad. Share your cherished memories, highlight their remarkable qualities, and take this moment to truly brag about the impact they’ve had on your life.

Selected notes will be featured on the Deer District Jumbo-tron during the event, allowing everyone to see and celebrate your touching tributes. Additionally, participants with the chosen notes will win a special dinner with their dad as a token of our appreciation for their contributions to our lives and community.

Please submit your notes (via email to info.jumpfortytwo@gmail.com) by August 17th. We can’t wait to read your beautiful notes and share them with our community.

*The Winning Note will receive lunch for 4 including their father.

Thank you for participating in this meaningful activity and helping us honor the extraordinary men who have made a difference in our lives. Let’s make this event truly unforgettable!
