HILTON HEAD ISLAND<br />

Mr. Ryan Stefonick | Bluffton, SC<br />

I believe when great forces come together, people will rise to the occasion. The partnership <strong>of</strong><br />

<strong>Hilton</strong> <strong>Head</strong> <strong>Island</strong> and Ironman will embrace our rich triathlon history, and encourage a new<br />

generation <strong>of</strong> participation in the LowCountry. Not simply for the athletes, but our community<br />

as one. Just as my wife and I have traveled the coast, and as far as Ireland to compete, countless<br />

more will call <strong>Hilton</strong> <strong>Head</strong> <strong>Island</strong> home during their next Ironman experience. These journeys are<br />

<strong>of</strong>ten accompanied by a large support group who give cheer and witness their accomplishment.<br />

Imagine if you will, the positive energy emitted from hosting this national event locally. Triathletes<br />

embody all demographics and represent many Fortune 500 business leaders. The Ironman<br />

Executive Challenge is just one example <strong>of</strong> how this sport reaches the top <strong>of</strong> influential organizations<br />

nationwide. What better an opportunity to showcase our active community and leave a<br />

positive, lasting memory for the participants.<br />

This endurance event will bring physical & mental health recognition to our area, while highlighting<br />

<strong>Hilton</strong> <strong>Head</strong> <strong>Island</strong> as a thriving vacation & residential community. Upon completing an Ironman,<br />

no one remembers the pain along the way, only the thrill <strong>of</strong> success. Let’s share that victory with<br />

<strong>Hilton</strong> <strong>Head</strong> <strong>Island</strong> in 2014, and say “Yes” to this opportunity. You have my support!<br />

Mr. Lee Winters | Columbia, SC<br />

I just learned that <strong>Hilton</strong> <strong>Head</strong> had an opportunity to bid for an Ironman race to be located in<br />

your community. Please accept my email as someone from outside your community who would<br />

love to see ya'll win this event. My family travels to tri-athlon events once a year and we have been<br />

forced to spend a week in Wilmington, NC and Augusta, GA the past few years. We'd much rather<br />

spend our time and money in your community, if only you had this distance race available. Good<br />

luck on your bid.<br />
