Dear Partners of Arapahoe County:
We are in the initial planning stages for the 5th Annual Arapahoe County VIP Dinner and Silent Auction to kick off the Arapahoe County Fair. Would your oganization be interested in donating something to the Silent Auction? Often times donors find that it is good publicity for their business. All proceeds will benefit the Arapahoe County Fair Building Fund.
The Internal Revenue Service has determined that Arapahoe County Foundation, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) charitable organization. When we receive a donation, we will send a receipt from the Arapahoe County Foundation, Inc. for the monetary donation that can be used in the preparation of your 2010 income tax filing. Please advise us on the value of your item(s) if it isn’t explicit. For tax treatment of donations, please refer to your tax advisor. By contributing, you will receive recognition at the dinner with your name listed in the VIP Dinner program and a “donated by” card will be placed by your item.
We would really appreciate receiving all donated items by June 14. Please know that your contributions will positively impact our event and will be much appreciated.
If you have any questions, please call me directly at 303-795-4530. Thank you for your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
Karen Richman
Director, BOCC Administration

Dear Aurora Chamber of Commerce Leader:
We need your help! Arapahoe County Government is celebrating the 104th Annual Arapahoe County Fair titled “Barnyard Boogie” this July 21-25, 2010. The Arapahoe County Fair is easily located at 25690 East Quincy Blvd. in Aurora. Just look for the giant water tower and you’ll know that you have arrived.
This year we are looking for individuals and organizations who might be interested in being one of our sponsors or providing volunteers to support the many activities in order to advance, encourage and protect western heritage and agricultural education while providing a quality event including competition, exhibition and entertainment. Please see the attached sponsor booklet.
There are numerous volunteer opportunities including gate greeters, information booth professionals, children’s educational activities and games, open class and 4 H exhibitions support, and contest coordinators. In addition we need folks to help us set up before the fair and tear down after the fair.
If you are interested in being a volunteer, please contact Val Purser at 303-738-7938. If you are interested in sponsor opportunities contact Jim Abendschan at 303-795-4956. We thank you for your consideration and hope to see you at the 2010 Arapahoe County Fair!
