An Invitation to Partner with Somersault
Somersault events are community participation events. They focus on the participants and their personal goals. We welcome partners who can benefit from and contribute to these event objectives.  If you know a community club, business, cause, or existing event, that might be interested to partner with Somersault, please contact Terry McKinty, at terry@somersault.ca. Of particular interest to us are partnerships with

• existing events which are looking for a long term event partner to grow their events
• businesses which can benefit from the promotion of health and fitness events for all ages and stages,
• municipalities who would like to establish annual family oriented participation events,
• children and youth organizations who wish to raise funds and profile though an event, and
• community organizations that are willing to commit people and energy to building participation events.

An Invitation to Clubs, Coaches, Trainers, and Retailers
We would be pleased to promote programs of any National Capital or Eastern Ontario/Western Quebec club, coach, trainer, or retailer in the our monthly Somersault Newsletter, IF that club, coach, trainer, or retailer is supportive of Somersault events, and IF you can provide Somersault participants with a special offer not available to non-Somersault participants.  Should you want your program communicated to the 15,000 Somersault participants who receive the Somersault Newsletter, please contact Terry at terry@somersault.ca. He would be pleased to discuss this offer with you.

And Don’t Forget Winterman – February 21, 2010
The first Somersault event of the year includes the Marathon, Marathon Relays, Half Marathon, 10Km, 5Km, & 3Km Run – something for everyone.  To get more information on, and to enter this truly Canadian and Winterlude event, go to www.wintermanmarathon.ca.
