A letter from Mayor Tornek and RBOC President Victor Gordo:
June 5, 2015
Dear Friends and Neighbors,
We would be grateful if you would honor us by being our community partner in supporting one of the most important and meaningful events held at the Rose Bowl -- the annual, spectacular Americafest 4th of July celebration. This will mark the 89th year that thousands of residents of our region will enjoy this wholesome family, patriotic celebration.
Having you join us as a partner and sponsor in this venture would mean so much to us and to the thousands of families who enjoy this remarkable Pasadena tradition in the historic Rose Bowl which we are proud to call "America's Stadium."
The evening will offer the best fireworks performance in Southern California and other family oriented entertainment. American Fest will feature musical performances by Liverpool Legends (Beatles tribute band), motorcycle stunts and following the fireworks a unique showing of the movie “Despicable Me 2” on the Rose Bowl’s giant video board.
We will continue our tradition of showing a special video tribute to recognize and honor the men and women from the greater San Gabriel Valley who gave their lives in Iraq and Afghanistan as they and their families have made the ultimate sacrifices for freedom.
All donors will be listed on the video board during the program. Donors will also be listed in all pre-event publicity, in the complimentary printed event program and in in the Pasadena Star News.
Please join us in supporting this important event which brings families together and which honors our brave military men and women serving us in troubled spots across the globe. Your donation will make a huge difference in ensuring the continued quality of this wonderful event. The specific benefit categories and instructions on giving by check, credit card or on line are outlined on the attached form.
Thank you so much for your thoughtful consideration of this request and by your continuing support of this wonderful celebration,
Sincerely,
