A Few Announcements

First off, thank you everyone for your outstanding support of this event!   


If you haven't yet registered you should register today- we're really trying to get as accurate as possible head count - there may be some exceptional turkey paraphernalia that only registered participants will receive.
Tandie Nielsen will be donating food for the event in hopes of raising a few extra bucks for the Parkers.  It could be anything from scones to hotdogs, only time will tell.
  
If you're not really into running a 5K but want to be involved you should volunteer!  We would love your help with water stations, the mini gobbler, and registration.  Please email jenniferbadgett@hotmail.com to sign up as a volunteer.

Okay, I believe that is all.  Hope we see you Saturday morning.  Please arrive at 9:45 a.m. so the race can start promptly at 10:00.  We will be meeting at the south pavilion at Merlin Olsen Park.
