Race the Lake —a 90 mile bike race around Lake Winnebago strives for a new definition for a bike event: to combine professional, triathlon, recreational and new cyclists and unite the communities surrounding Lake Winnebago. This one of a kind event captured the spirit of the participants, volunteers and communities as it succeeded to put on one of the most successful and safe bike races in the United States. The event begins at 5:40 a.m. in Fond du lac and cyclists come through Oshkosh only between 6:30 and 7:25 a.m. This has been a very smooth process as we plan with the police well ahead of time the intersections they have designated they will cover and the intersections that will be covered by our volunteers. There are frequent meetings between all three counties including, sheriff, police, public works and medical teams. There are no bands, churches, starts or finishes that impact Oshkosh. This is a very low key event due to the time of the day. In the last three years we have worked Wisconsin Department of Transportation and the Wisconsin Department of Tourism as the race creates a huge impact on tourism dollars within Northeastern Wisconsin. We also work with all three ARC Charities: Fond du Lac, Winnebago and the Fox Cities as the beneficiary. I will also work closely with Officer Matt Harris. I will be happy to attend any city board meeting to discuss any issues or details. If you have any questions or comments, please do not hesitate to contact me. You can reach me at 920- 38 -8741 or on my cell phone at 920 -562 -1885.

Z , P-\� "Race the Lake" Lake Winnebago Sponsorship introduction Lake Winnebago is one of the most well known inland lakes in the Midwest and one of the largest lakes In the United States. Local residents are well acquainted with its majestic beauty as well as practical use for water recreation. A bike race around Lake Winnebago is a biker's dream and will ignite the human spirit for the entire community. The event's title "Race the Lake" was chosen for a very good reason. It is an event designed for the local, recreational cyclist to race the lake as an individual challenge, not against others. Simultaneously, it will also incorporate a professional, timed and competitive event for the elite cyclist. This event will encompass all athletic abilities to ensure the community and sponsors that it will be a mainstay and future "household" word with a massive appeal. As a professional race with a prize money purse of $10,000 and elite athlete recruitment, the event will draw publicity from the sports media. In addition to professional cyclists in attendance, the open class citizen category creates publicity from regional, health /lifestyle segments of the media. Midwest Sports Event will oversee the planning and execution of all race logistics and operations.They work closely with all public safety officials and organize the communities surrounding the lake for the "Race the Lake ". With 20 � Wars experience in creating and organizing events, along with the support of the Wisconsin Bureau of Tourism, this guarantees the success and long lasting event growth and pride. 5 Ws of "Race the Lake" Who? - Midwest Sports Events,the Wisconsin Bureau of Tourism and TEAM 4 - Racing to Fight Women's FOUR Cancers,have teamed togetherto make this an annual, highly publicized national bike race. Midwest Sports Events has the experience of executing an event of this size because of their numerous experiences organizing Half Ironmans and marathon events. The Wisconsin Bureau of Tourism knows the benefits event can generate, as it will create a strong financial impact for the state, many of its cities, counties and communities. In the past TEAM 4 has worked with Midwest Sports Events and continue to find it important; women's cancer are still on the rise. What? _ Race the Lake". ..Bike racing for professionals and recreational riders has grown to be one of the most popular events nationally! This multi -city, multi- county bike race will hold 5 -8 hours of intense competition for elite athletes and recreation for the bikers as they travel through over 20 different communities. Bike races showcase the professional athletes' endurance, commitment and power and at the same time the determination and challenge for the every day cyclist. Where? -- Lake Winnebago...One of the largest inland lakes in the United States and the most popular lake in Wisconsin will be the 90 mile course for the event. This course includes: Fond du Lac,Winnebago Outagamie and Calumet Counties... "Race the Lake "will stage the dramatic start and finish at Lakeside Park in Fond du Lac. Thousands of bikers will begin their journey out of the park and head north hugging the lake as they travel through Winnebago, Calumet then finishing in Fond du Lac again at Lakeside Park. Riders will see a plethora of sites to include The Lighthouse in Oshkosh, the climb up "High Cliff "at High Cliff State Park in Sherwood, and the down the panoramic east shoreline of Lake Winnebago. When? - August ...This late summer event sits at the ideal date for bikers to participate as they will have the spring and early summer months to prepare for an event of this size. Early start! The race will begin at 7 a.m. to ward off the summer heat and avoid the traffic that will increase throughout the day. This is also an ideal time of the year because there is lull in the media; "Race the Lake "comes after many summer festivals and before the school year begins. Why? - "Race the Lake" is established to create awareness for Women's cancers, publicity for sponsors and the state of Wisconsin while promoting a healthy lifestyle for all participants and surrounding communities. The "Race the Lake" Is much more than a bike race, not only will it become a major fundraiser to help fight cancer, it will be an annual event that attracts thousands of spectators, visitors, professional athletes and the media each year. 1.. t` -- BIKE COURSE Lake Winnebago, being one of the largest inland bodies of water in the United States, naturally creates a spectacular venue. The start at Lakeside Park in Fond du Lac is an ideal staging location with accessible areas for the early morning staging of the event. A Lighthouse located in the park is an appropriate icon for cyclists who will "navigate" the shoreline that day. The ride will start along the quiet marshland by the lake on Hwy 45 and follow near the shoreline of Lake Winnebago to Oshkosh. It will then bustle into Historic Oshkosh, past the downtown Opera House Square, turn at the Sundial Fountain and then head east to the shoreline at Menominee Parkway and Zoo. It will continue on Hwy A through Neenah to Riverside Park, which will be one of the major rest stops. Spectators who are following the participants in their vehicles will fill Riverside Park and other major rest stops. Continuing into Menasha, the race will go past the downtown square and water fountain. Leaving Menasha, cyclists will take a designated lane on Hwy 114. They will then ride past the spacious North Shore Golf Course and then to one of the most naturally beautiful places in Wisconsin, High Cliff State Park. Part of the Niagara Escarpment, the park rests on limestone bluffs towering 225 feet above the lake and with spectacular overlooks. The race will continue down the east side of the lake traveling on Lake Shore Drive, past Calumet County Park and then encounter a very challenging hill with a 17 %grade. The "King of the Hill award will be given to the first biker to arrive at the top. The east side of the lake offers a panoramic view and is known for its exquisite sunrises and sunsets. Bikers will go by Sunset Beach, east to Calumetville and out to the countryside of Brothertown and St Peter. Nearing the end, the course will wind through the southeast corner of the lake, climbing high roads. Finally, cyclists will return into the east side of Fond du Lac, at Lakeside Park; an appropriate end point because the meaning of Fond du Lac is "foot of the lake." "Race the Lake" bike course goes through numerous cities and guarantees increased visibility for your sponsorship...

We are a small tournament of local residents and boost on our success of a high percentage of fish returned into the local system with the assistance of the Walleyes for Tomorrow release efforts. With the use of the sailboat docks this can be done very quickly allowing our tournament a successful release. Immediately following the contestant's fish being weighted they head to tournament headquarters for the presentation of awards. We would also need to have an electrical outlet to be available to run the scale and the computer. Please contact Randy Harwood at 920 -426 -1370 if you have any questions or concerns. Again, thank you for allowing this tournament to be a success.
