Dear

We are pleased to announce that on Thursday evening, February 11th at 6pm, the Mechanicville Area Community Services Center will host our third annual Community Hearts Celebration.

The Community Hearts Celebration will be at the Fairways of Halfmoon again this year, where we will recognize individuals and companies within the Mechanicville area that have strengthened our community. The evening will be highlighted by food stations, cocktails, and well deserved awards.

We warmly ask that you sponsor this event.   I have attached a sponsorship letter for your convenience. This event not only spotlights individuals within Mechanicville but also outlying communities.   Among this year’s honorees are the Founders of MACSC, and Sam Carabis who has been on the MACSC Board of Directors since its beginning in 1969. An official list of all honorees will be posted on the Community Hearts Celebration Homepage the week of January 11th.

Please indicate on the enclosed form with a check mark next to the level of event sponsorship you are willing to commit to and return to MACSC via mail or fax.   Your generosity will help to sustain our programs that MACSC has provided for 47 years.
