2008 SPONSOR SPOTLIGHTs / REASONS FOR GETTING involved

CHAPEL HILL HOME THEATRE & SWIM FOR SMILES
Chapel Hill Home Theatre Design and Swim for Smiles are proud to support the 2008 Carrboro Classic Endurance Sports Festival. Both were founded by Chapel Hill-resident Gary Kayye. Swim for Smiles is a non-profit foundation which raises money for the North Carolina Children’s Hospital through swimming-related events for kids, including a Youth Triathlon. Chapel Hill Home Theatre Design is home entertainment design firm, providing whole house audio, home theatre, and interior design services. We are proud to support those that work hard and play hard.

The Swim for Smiles Foundation would like to thank everyone for supporting their mission to give back to the UNC Children's Hospital.  Thanks to events like this, we have given over $30,000 to the local children's hospitals in the past three years.

PARTNERS IN HEALTH & WELLNESS
The Carrboro Classic is a wonderful opportunity to socialize and compete in an organized sports environment.  Novice athletes can use this event to improve their overall health and fitness while more experienced athletes can compete on a challenging yet beautiful course.  We believe our community-based events that promote physical fitness and personal growth opportunities are integral to the overall health and well-being of our town.  We hope everyone enjoys the Endurance Sports Festival and we thank Endurance Magazine for organizing such an exciting event for the Chapel Hill and Orange County area.

Look for Dr. Taylor and Dr. Hecht at the Partners in Health & Wellness tent starting at 6:00 AM on race day.  They'll be providing pre-race stretches and other valuable treatments to help you get race-ready!


OPEN EYE CAFE
The Open Eye Cafe prides itself on supporting it's community, especially in the pursuit of an active lifestyle!   For over 9 years the Open Eye Cafe has donated coffee, fruit, bagels & more to countless area athletic events and more.  The owners themselves are competitive athletes and understand the natural connection that exists between coffee & athletics!  Supporting the Carrboro Classic allows us to reach a diverse crowd of active individuals that are interested in bettering themselves while simultaneously enjoying the quality & expertise Open Eye Cafe, and Carrboro Coffee Company; Chapel Hill / Carrboro's only coffee roaster,  have to offer.
