DePaul Catholic Seeks Sponsors for Spartan Scramble 5K Road Race/Walk to Benefit Scholarship, Building Funds

Corporations, foundations and individuals are lending their support to the 2014 Spartan Scramble, a 5K road race/walk to benefit DePaul Catholic High School (DPCHS).

A wide range of sponsorship packages are still available for the Scramble, to be held on Saturday, Nov. 22. Event proceeds will benefit the school’s Scholarship Fund and Building Fund.

Sponsorship opportunities range from the Sprinter ($100), Pacer ($250) and Jogger ($500) levels, to Runner ($1,000) and Marathon ($2,500) levels. Each offers specific benefits, such as complimentary race entries and marketing/branding opportunities.

The 3.1-mile race kicks off at 8 a.m. from Alumni Field, on the DPCHS campus, located at 1512 Alps Rd., in Wayne. Winding through the township’s local suburban neighborhood, the morning run/walk loop will finish at Alumni Field. Digital timing is being provided by Racing NJ – Race Timing and Management. Registration opens at 6:30 a.m. and complimentary pre- and post-race refreshments will be served.

There is an entry fee of $25 per person for all runners and walkers. To register for the event, being held rain or shine, visit www.spartanscramble5k.com. Custom t-shirts, bearing each sponsor’s logo, will be provided to participants at registration while supplies last.

As part of DPCHS’ commitment to scholarship, faith and community, non-perishable food donations are being collected by the school’s Interact Club for its annual Thanksgiving food drive. Donations will benefit the Father English Community Center.
