Woodridge Rotary Club's 18th Mini Triathlon gained important support from Pulte Homes. Pulte Homes committed to being a $2,500 Gold Sponsor for this year's race event which is scheduled for Sunday, August 13.
"The partnership of Pulte and the Woodridge Rotary Club continues a tradition that benefits all the residents of the area. This is a great community social and athletic activity-and our sponsors help support many worthy community projects," said Bob Mocek, Woodridge Rotary President.
"We could not be more excited to be selling our consumer-inspired home designs in two incredible locations in Woodridge," stated Maria Wilhelm, Pulte VP of Sales. "We build consumer inspired homes and communities to make lives better" is our company vision statement and partnered with the Village of Woodridge, we stand together to delight our future homeowners at our newest one-of-a-kind community, Uptown at Seven Bridges as we are quickly closing out of Timbers Edge," Wilhelm added.
Early Bird Registration for the Woodridge Rotary Club's 18th Mini Triathlon ends June 30. The Mini Triathlon, held at the Woodridge Park District's award-winning Cypress Cove Aquatic Park, 8301 Janes Avenue, Woodridge is Chicagoland's largest Mini Triathlon and is the major fundraiser for the Woodridge Rotary Club.
The Woodridge Club seeks to provide opportunities for children and families to enrich their lives. Each year 15 projects and organizations are supported by proceeds from the Mini Triathlon.
