[deborah magaldi]

*Ready, Set, Go! to the May 22, 2013 Run-A-Round*

Check your running shoes and save the date! The 28th annual Jefferson 
Lab Run-A-Round event will be held Wednesday, May 22, from 3 - 6 p.m. 
JLab staff, users, students, full-time contractors and immediate family 
members are invited to participate. Staff and users that participate in 
the run or that volunteer can receive a free 2013 JLab T-shirt.

The event will begin in front of CEBAF Center at 3 p.m. with the debut 
of the 2013 T-shirt. The run/walk will start promptly at 3:15 p.m.; 
please note this start time differs from years past. The run will cover 
a 2.2 kilometer (~1.36 mile) course.

Food and beverages, music and the awards presentations will follow the 
race. Awards will go to the top three male and female finishers in each 
age group and to the top three overall fastest male and female 
finishers. Included this year is a special category dubbed the "Stroller 
Stride." Bring the littlest ones and compete with the exclusive stroller 
group.

*Register For Run-A-Round By May 21*
Online registration is open on the JAG webpage at: 
http://www.jlab.org/intralab/committees/jag/

All runners and walkers must register to be eligible for prizes. Online 
registration is open through 5 p.m. on Tuesday, May 21. Register 
yourself and your family members who are planning to participate, so 
adequate refreshments can be planned. We are asking parents wishing to 
join the Stroller Stride to sign up as a runner in their age category to 
secure a race bib. Actual Stroller sign up will be the day of the race 
during bib pickup.

All participants must pick up their race bibs on Wednesday, May 22, 
between 9 a.m. and 2:30 p.m. in the CEBAF Center lobby.

Late registration also will be from 9 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. on May 22 in the 
CEBAF Center lobby. However, individuals registering the day of the race 
won't be eligible for awards.

Staff and users may turn in their race bib at the T-shirt Distribution 
Tent after the race to get their free 2013 JLab T-shirt.

*Help Make Event a Success: Volunteer One Hour of Your Time*
The success of this event depends heavily on participation and volunteer 
support. Volunteering is a great way to meet new faces, catch up with 
colleagues and co-workers and enjoy the afternoon. Volunteers not 
participating in the race will receive a free 2013 JLab T-shirt.

Just one hour or your time will give JAG the support needed to make this 
event a success, and fun for everyone.

Sixty volunteer opportunities need to be filled. Volunteer sign-up is 
available on the JAG webpage at: 
http://www.jlab.org/intralab/committees/jag/

Volunteer help is needed before, during and after the event in a variety 
of areas, including:
-- Food preparation and set up before the event.
-- Staff the late registration and bib distribution tables the day of 
the event.
-- Water stations, course and finish line monitors.
-- T-shirt distribution.
-- Staffing food and beverage tents before and during event.
-- Breakdown after the event.

We hope to see you at the Run-A-Round!
