29 MAR 2008 (Sat) GLENDA "Just a Short Run" 6:30am

 

The annual Just a Short Run (actually, it's a 5K, 1/2 Marathon and a 30K) to benefit the Western PA/WV Leukemia & Lymphoma Society and taking place at lovely North Park on Saturday March 29.   This number of participants in this event has grown by leaps and bounds (over 40 percent per year) over the last few years making it the largest ½ marathon event in western PA! 
(So it’s important for GLENDA to have volunteer presence there!)

GLENDA has volunteered for this event for the last seven years and we've been asked to help again this year.  The event takes place early in the day!  Volunteers are needed for the registration tables, handing out timing chips and the food tables.  For those interested, it's a 3-hour slot from 6:30 (yes, AM) to 9:30.  Come on, it'll be fun.

In order for GLENDA to participate, we need to confirm at least 8 volunteers to the race director. So, please reply as a "YES" or "MAYBE" by Friday, March 21.
