Scare Away Hunger Halloween Playday & Costume Contest
Business Sponsors
On Saturday, August 29, 2015 Three Brothers Riding School will be hosting the Scare Away Hunger
Halloween Playday & Costume Contest for our students and boarders. The proceeds will go to our
Brazos Food Bank, student scholarships, and help with the up keep of the school, so that we can keep
the benefits of riding affordable for all. As many of our students don’t usually don’t get a chance to
participate in horse shows, this is a special event for them. We are working hard at making this horse
show a great success. We are expecting many participants and spectators to attend our horse show
There are three ways a local business can help make the show successful. You can be a barrel sponsor
for $50 (Signs with your logo will be placed on a barrel that will be used in the show or displayed around
the arena for the year) or be an arena sponsor for $100 (if you provide us with a banner we will display it
in our arena for the year). Business can also donate items for prizes. We are looking for anything that
will help our students with future showing or show our parent how much we appreciate them.
Your sponsorship will help us give a t-shirt to every child that participates in our horse show. All of the
volunteers will be wearing the t-shirts during the playday. Sponsors will be listed on the back of the tshirts, announced during the show, and posted for all to see. Cutoff date to be included as a sponsor
and listed on the t-shirt is Friday, September 30th, 2015.
Thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to consider helping Three Brothers Riding School
and our fight against hunger. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at 210.632.2097,
or e-mail me at 3brothersstable@gmail.com. I look forward to hearing from you soon. You can also visit
our web site: 3brothers.vpweb.com.

Dear Parents:
Three Brothers Riding School will be hosting the Scare Away Hunger Halloween Playday & Costume
Contest for our students. The “Scare Away Hunger Halloween Playday & Costume Contest” will have two
purposes: to allow all our riders to participate in a horse show and to raise funds for our riding school
and fight cancer. The proceeds will go to the Brazos Food Bank, student scholarships, and help with the
up keep of the school, so that we can keep the benefits of riding affordable for all. I am very committed
to keeping my prices low so that more can take advantage of the great sport of riding. I don’t have to tell
you the benefits your child gets from riding. I hope you will share with your family and friends. I truly
believe riding teaches life skills that have been overlooked in today’s youth: bravery, leadership and selfreliance.
Ribbons 1st through 6th in their class, prizes for 1st through 3rd, and a one month scholarship and
Costume Belt for High Point. The rider who raises the most funds will receive a four-month riding
scholarship. In addition to being a great event for our riders, this is also a great opportunity for you to
help raise funds for our school and fight hunger. For every lesson that your child participates in, you pay
approximately 25% of the actual cost of the lesson. The remaining 75% of the actual cost of a lesson is
raised by Three Brothers through fundraisers and boarding. We are asking you to help raise funds so we
may continue to offer great lessons at low cost to all our riders. Students can raise money two ways:
pledges in any amount and the sponsorship of the arena or Barrel.
We would love for all our riders to participate! The only requirement we are requesting from riders is to
raise a minimum of $75 in pledges to participate in the horse show. Any rider that turns in at least $75 in
collected pledges and enter by September 30th will receive a free Three Brothers Riding School t-shirt. All
monies must be turned in by October 8th, 2015 to count toward prizes and to participate in the show.
Please consider participating in the Scare Away Hunger Halloween Playday & Costume Contest. There is
a division for everyone, whether your child feels most comfortable at a walk, trot, or canter. This will be
a great event that your child will enjoy while at the same time helping out our riding school and fighting
cancer. In the coming weeks, we will hand out the rider campaign packet to help assist you in raising
pledges. If you have any questions please call Maggie at 210-632-2097. With your help we can “Make
Dreams Come True.”
With Gratitude,
Maggie Pierce

Hints for Collecting Pledges:
We want this event to be both fun for the riders and beneficial for our riding school. No amount is too small, we
want everyone to participate at the level at which they are comfortable. Here are some ideas to help you collect
pledges:
• When collecting pledges from family and friends, be sure to let them know that any amount is great. If
you have set goals for yourself tell them what it is so they feel like they are actively participating with
you.
• Don’t forget to thank your sponsors. After you have collected your donations, please send thank you
notes to all your sponsors. Include a picture of you and your horse or make a special thank you gift. This
lets them know how much you appreciate their support and they will be more likely to sponsor you next year.
Please call Maggie at 210.632.2097 with any questions

where we will all learn
to get up after a fall.
