I am planning this event as an alternative for avid cyclists, not up to par for most serious competitions. My objective is to host a fun, safe event in Oshkosh while promoting alternative transportation and fitness. This event is meant to take some of the stigma from bicycling as a form of regular travel. My marketing plan is to provide flyers in all Appleton, Oshkosh and Fond du Lac bicycle shops as well as downtown and to our college campuses. I also have a 100+ person following on Facebook and a few sponsorship opportunities in place who are all very excited about this competition. The competition would be organized as follows: • There will be seven checkpoints in Oshkosh parks and businesses for each participant to contact, in order. (see attached map) • Each participant will designate their own course, using their knowledge of the city. This format will avoid groups of cyclists congesting any one street at a time and provide more safety for our riders. I have attached an alternate course so we can be as flexible and cooperative as necessary. Thanks for your help. If anyone would like more information they can reach me at (920) 410 -6141 and email at captainmkrueger @hotmail.com Sincerely, Michael Krueger 1128 Oregon St. Oshkosh, WI 54902 Oshkosh, WI - Google Maps Page 1 of 1 Address Oshkosh, WI Notes from: South Park to Fugelberg " gle' m park, to Riverside park, to streets of Fire, to Shapiro Park, to Congress Ave. Park, to Riverside Cemetary, to Red Arrow Park, back to South Park 33 to finish. g, Pairacres= { 101 , 1 11 Shopping cerder xs 9i VY tvtt� dock Ave 4S t.4uurdack Ave Lgke Share }' €rt r ��3x rse € RarZ MR. 41 }' a il Park Z E -W P�rYk Conlyese gy� 4n Abe Rc ltn r f uanc ra Avtrx r, str Awe Athl Park r 21 u 'ark W Nate York Ave E New York Ave weslread "9 4, 3 1 , y .�hnR¢71n Cer&ir�r FS tl� h r : `.- �y E .7 Hall r� Park " j� � m ry q P . k �tt ' :..

The walk will be held on Saturday, October 2, 2010 beginning at 10:00 am. Registration will begin at 8:30am. Nearly 1.4 million Americans are estimated to be diagnosed with cancer in 2010, and over 11,000 are expected to die from the disease in the state of Wisconsin. With your help, we plan to change these figures and save lives. Your American Cancer Society has set the following aggressive goals for the year 2015: • reduce cancer incidence by 25 percent, • reduce cancer mortality by 50 percent, and • measurably improve the quality of life for cancer patients and their families. We will achieve these goals by funding Research to find a cure, Education for cancer prevention and early detection, Advocacy to enact laws in support of cancer related issues and Service to help patients through their journey. The fundraising efforts of your residents at this event will help the American Cancer Society to meet these goals. Together, we are making a difference. We appreciate your consideration of this event in advance. Please contact me with any questions about this event or the proposed route at 877.423.9124, extension 400. With your support we are making a difference. I am looking forward to hearing from you in the near future.

(;)R 1.)MAKOSIMI 54901 Mr. Mark Rohloff City Manager 215 Church Avenue Oshkosh, WI 54901 Dear Mr. Rohloff, The Oshkosh Public Museum has partnered with the Downtown Oshkosh Business Improvement District (BID) on a special event being held in conjunction with our current exhibit, Sherlock Holmes & the Clocktower Mystery. The conclusion of the downtown event, Sherlock Holmes & the Mystery of the Oshkosh Jewel Heist, is this Friday, July 30, with downtown activities from 1:00 to 5:00. As part of the festivities, the museum and BID would like to jointly sponsor horse -drawn carriage rides in the downtown area. I am requesting permission to have a horse and carriage on city streets on July 30 from 1:00 to 4:00. People would board the carriage on Market Street between Algoma Boulevard and High Avenue. The ten minutes ride down adjoining city streets would return people to the Market Street location. The proposed route would be down Algoma to Division to Pearl and back to Market. However, the route may be modified pending a review of the streets by the owner of the horse and carriage, Jim Loyette of Cedar Ridge Ranch LLC, out of Ripon, Wisconsin. The owner has provided the necessary insurance coverage in compliance with the City of Oshkosh's Insurance Requirements, which is on file with the City Clerk.
