1st Annual “Toby’s Dream” Project 5K Memorial Race/Brunch
Sponsorship/Donor Levels in support of the “Toby’s Dream” Project 5k.
Stuart “Toby” Pennels, as President of the Windham
Veterans Association utilized his leadership managerial
skills to bring order and direction to the Association. Under
his guidance the Windham Veterans Center was moving into
the 21st Century with enhancements that would make the
Center a better rental deal for the community. His planned
improvements included a new electronics package that
would allow renters to use a range of digital devices, an
enhanced building security system and most critical to
the plan, the paving of the Windham Veterans
Center’s parking lot and drive.
Unfortunately, Toby’s dream of improving the Center was
cut short by a tragic accident. One Veteran put it this way,
“Toby, a known fund raiser, comes into the picture. He has a
track record of raising thousands of dollars. …. He had many
ideas that he thought would get the job done. But before he could
implement any of these he was cut down in the prime of life…… (It
seems like) Everything falls apart…”
Ken Murch, WVA
With “Mud Season” fast upon us, anyone visiting the Windham Veterans Center quickly understands the
implications to not having the parking lot and entrance drive paved.
So, “Toby’s Dream” came about as a collaboration of the Veterans in the Association to honor Toby’s
memory with the naming of the entrance road as Toby Pennels Memorial Drive and to pursue his
“Dream” by raising the funds needed to complete the paving project.
To date over $20,000.00 has been raised towards a goal of $50,000.00.
