This will be a 2-in-1 post asking you to REGISTER and VOLUNTEER this Saturday April 30!
REGISTER NOW! The 5K committee has done a fantastic job this year lining up sponsors for participation gifts, category prizes, and free registration for Bates students. The t-shirt is a winning design submitted by a student, so will be a great keepsake. As a bonus, Dr. Bragdon will allow participants to wear their 5K t-shirt to school Monday May 4th! There will be a DJ and food, as well as class prizes for the most participation, so you want to make sure you don't miss it! There are only 300 t-shirts being printed, so register now to make sure you get one - they are going fast! You can register on by clicking here for Active.com ($3 service fee) or send in your registration to the office tomorrow. The printable form can be found by clicking on the Bates MS website.
VOLUNTEER NOW! We are only about 30% staffed for the "day of" duties. Please let Lynn Sullivan know if you can help. We need 10 more people to stand along the route to guide runners in the right direction. We also need 4 more people for registration and to man the food table. Lynn can be reached at sullyman5@comcast.net or 410-573-0596. Volunteers need to be at the track from 7am to 10am.
PACKET PICK-UP: Packet pick up will be Friday night from 4-8pm at Charm City Run in the Parole Towne Centre (in the section between Anthropologie and Talbots) or Saturday morning at the track starting at 7:30am. NOTE: Bates students will not be able to pick up their t-shirts until Saturday morning.
THANK YOU to Lynn Sullivan, Jim Lathom, Tim Whisted, Mellissa Robertson, Mitchell McGuinness, Amy Hitt and Deidre Ralph for all your hard work on this event!
