THE TERMINATOR
Inaugural 5K and One-Mile Walk
Registration Form
Join us for the inaugural Terminator 5K and One-Mile walk on Saturday, April 20, 2019, in Sandersville, GA. All proceeds from this event will be donated to The Preston Robert Tisch Brain Tumor Center at Duke University Medical Center to further their research on the treatment and cure for brain cancer.
The Preston Robert Tisch Brain Tumor Center conducts groundbreaking research, offers clinical trials, provides innovative treatments, and takes an aggressive approach to the care of individuals with brain tumors. At Duke, there is HOPE!
In November 2017, I, Pam Stewart, was diagnosed with Stage IV Glioblastoma Multiforme (GBM). GBM is often referred to as “The Terminator”, hence the name of the race. Since my diagnosis, I have received outstanding care from some of the best medical professionals at Duke University. Thanks to my medical team, I have remained tumor free for fifteen months, and I feel compelled to aid in the search for a cure for brain tumors and brain cancer.
Join us on Saturday, April 20, 2019, in Sandersville, Georgia, to raise critical funds to support cutting edge brain cancer research being completed at Duke University. Help us TERMINATE brain cancer!
The run/walk will start and finish at Brentwood School.

Dear Business Stakeholder:
Our Special Education Department is seeking to allow our students to participate in extracurricular activities. Our students enjoy being out in the community and the social interactions that occur with these trips are irreplaceable. As you well know, there are always costs involved for our students. In order to prevent asking parents for money, we are reaching out to our business stakeholders.
Your donation will help defray the costs of items for our special education students such as:
Special Olympics uniforms
Special Olympics lunches and snacks
Transportation to and from Special Olympics events
Classroom field trips
Classroom incentives
If you are able, we’d love it if you could make a donation to help our students. Thank you in advance for your contribution. Please make checks payable to Washington County Board of Education Special Programs Department
Sincerely,
Emily Johnson
Director of Special Programs

Now Small Businesses Can Save Thousands!
We, at the Chamber, hear from our small business members that health insurance, employee benefits and HR administration are a major expense and concern. At the same time, many people are talking about the possibilities of association purchasing power. For those reasons, we’ve teamed up to give you large business style buying power for your small business—even for those with just one employee.
The chamber’s participation in Healthy Business Alliance® allows your small business to take advantage of big business-type benefits assembled by Purchasing Alliance SOLUTIONS® (PAS). National in scope and local in delivery, participating service providers and affiliated chamber member insurance agents provide benefits to small businesses that have never been greater. Through Healthy Business Alliance, PAS makes the complex, simple and the expensive, affordable.
This robust program gives you purchasing power with multiple companies such as Aetna, Humana, Kaiser Permanente, United Healthcare, National General, Allied National, Intentional Benefits and many more. In fact, Healthy Business Alliance delivers more employee benefits savings options than any program in America.
Here are just a few of the purchasing options offered by Purchasing Alliance SOLUTIONS:
- Build-Your-Own-Benefits Plan: Do away with the expensive pieces you really don’t need from your old plans and give yourself the perfect coverage at the best price for your business. Learn more.
- Healthy Year? Receive Money Back: You can receive up to 100% of unspent claims fund dollars back at the end of your contract year. Healthcare coverage, money back? Learn more.
- Buy What You Can Afford: Get 24/7 access to a family doctor and give your employees the option to upgrade on their own! Learn more.
- Don’t want a Group plan? Help Employees Pay for Private Individual Coverage: We know you care about your employees and now you can help them purchase their own policy as much as you are able! Learn more.
