PLEASE BE ADVISED THAT DUE TO COVID-19 WE HAVE HAD TO MODIFY SEVERAL OF THE SPONSORSHIP BENEFITS IN 2020:
- Sponsors will be promoted in digital mediums only- website, social media channels, e blasts. As there won't be a live event, we will not have the opportunity to promote our sponsors on physical banners, signage or through distribution of their products at our event.
- In an effort to mail T-shirts to all registrants in advance of June 20th, we must print our T-shirts very soon--before ending our sponsorship campaign. As a result, the 2020 T shirt will not list sponsors on the bank.
- We will distribute an electronic event brochure that lists our sponsors .
- We will continue to provide complementary entries based on the level of sponsorship ($5000 = 8; $2500 = 6; $1000 = 4; $500 = 2; $250 = 1)
Good Morning R4 Sponsors,
Hope you are all managing through these challenging times. Please stay healthy and well. I’m writing to let you know that the R4 2020 has gone virtual!
We weighed the pros and cons of cancelling the event but believe the needs of the individuals we raise funds for are greater now than they ever were.
Imagine trying to balance isolation and social distancing with the need to receive treatment in doctor’s offices and hospitals. The individuals we help were already experiencing financial challenges as a result of their illness and now some have had family members lose their jobs, creating even greater financial stress.
WE ARE GRATEFUL TO OUR SPONSORS.
We also understand this outbreak is affecting many of our sponsors, some of whom have temporarily closed their businesses or greatly reduced staff. For those of you in this position, please hang in there; no pressure to contribute.
For those sponsors who sent in your contribution before the outbreak, we thank you. If your circumstances have changed, we will gladly return the funds to help you get through these difficult times. Just let us know.
For those of you who are still able to financially support the R4 this year, and can make your contribution, we would be grateful. Hopefully you received our earlier sponsorship packet (via email). If not, you can get the information here: https://www.rockhillrun.com/sponsors.html
For those of you who donate in-kind to support our raffle, we would still graciously accept those donations. We are thinking about staging an on-line auction or raffle as a part of this year’s fundraising efforts and would love to receive your gift certificates or any other prizes you would like to contribute.
Finally, I want to mention the vendors we rely on to stage our event each year. They undoubtedly are suffering hardship as a result of all the cancellations. We will do our small part to help sustain these businesses so that they will be there for us long after the coronavirus is gone.
VIRTUAL 5K:
Let me give you a little more information about R4 2020 Virtual 5K. The silver lining is there are no longer any geographic boundaries to our event. People everywhere can walk or run together, while apart—even with their dogs!
Here’s how it will work:
The R4 5K will officially kick off on Facebook live at 9:00 AM on Saturday, June 20th. Participants will run or walk their preferred 5K route at any time on June 20th.
There are two registration options: Pay $10.00 and download a Race Bib or $30.00 and also receive an event T-shirt by mail. Participants will register here: www.rockhillrun.com. For those sponsors at a Silver ($250) level or higher, we will send you a link(s) to register for no additional fee.
Everyone’s Race bib # will be 547 this year. That was the last Race Bib #Trevor wore in 2013, three weeks before he passed away. I know it would make him happy to see people everywhere supporting the event. My dad, Walter, will also be smiling. As you know, the R4 also benefits the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, supporting research for blood cancer, which many of our grant recipients are receiving treatment for.
After completing the 5K, we are asking everyone to share their finish photos on our social media channels (Facebook, twitter, Instagram) #rockhillrun #TLF #R45K
In order to purchase the t-shirts and mail them to everyone that registers, we won’t be printing sponsor names on the back this year. The timing won’t work as we want to be sure people can wear them on June 20th. We hope you understand.
We are grateful to all our sponsors and will promote you via digital media and social media channels to everyone we connect with throughout the country.
Stay safe,
Suzanne Rhulen Loughlin

Sponsor Letter Pre-Covid 19
Dear Sponsor,
Thanks for the critical support you have given the Rhulen Rock Hill Run & Ramble (R4) and the Trevor Loughlin Foundation. This is the 28th year of the R4—the same age Trevor would be. He keeps me energized to raise funds and stage this event so we can help others.
In 2019 we issued 30 grants from the Trevor Loughlin Foundation to individuals who needed our help—more than any other year. These recipients span all age groups and are diagnosed with illnesses that included blood, breast, lung, colon, ovarian, esophageal, and brain cancer. Like our sponsors and participants, these individuals are our neighbors, family members and friends in our community—they live in Sullivan, Orange, Ulster, Duchess, Rockland and neighboring Pennsylvania.
In memory of my father, Walter Rhulen who died of leukemia, we also remain committed to raising funds for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. Their scientific discoveries have expanded the understanding of how cancer works and advanced breakthrough treatments for not only the 1.3 million Americans living with blood cancer, but for patients with other cancers and diseases as well. We also support other local organizations that are critical to quality of life on a local level, like the Catskill Regional Medical Center Foundation.
Please help us to help others by sponsoring the 28th Anniversary R4. We appreciate any monetary amount or in-kind donation you are comfortable with. Donations needed include raffle prizes (anything that would encourage someone to buy a ticket!) as well as beverage and food items to give the participants on race day.
You can make your payment via PayPal or credit card or reflect an in-kind donation by clicking on the sponsor level below. You can also print out the pdf form and mail it in with your check.
I remain so grateful to all of you,
