Dear Business Owner:

The Butte Figure Skating Club has some very exciting news!!!

 2 time Olympic Silver Medalist and World Champion Skater, ELVIS STOJKO, is coming to Butte to skate in the season finale called “Patriotic Pride” on July 1, 2 and 3 at the Butte Civic Center.

At this time we are asking your business for any financial assistance in helping to defray the travel and accommodation costs associated with bringing this talented and popular skater to Butte.

The Butte Figure Skating Club has been a part of Butte’s culture since 1952 and is a non-profit, 501(c)(3), youth oriented organization that promotes teamwork, work ethics and helps enhance figure skating skills in their members.  Figure skating is also a great form of exercise and helps build confidence, endurance and co-ordination.  It is believed that lessons of self discipline, self-esteem and concentration learned by students during figure skating participation spill over into their academic and daily lives.

This is an exciting and great opportunity for the city of Butte and the surrounding cities, as people from all over the state will be coming to see Elvis skate especially during one of our busiest holidays.  He will even in participating in the 4^th of July parade with the club.

Thank you for your time and consideration regarding this huge opportunity.  Please do not hesitate to contact me, if you desire to help out in any way or if you simply have any questions.

Your generosity is greatly appreciated.

Sincerely yours

Kris McDonald, President
