Help the PRC by volunteering for the JP Morgan Chase Corporate Challenge. This Years race is on Thursday June 21, 2001. Volunteers need to be at the Boston Common by 4PM. The Race begins at 7PM. If you can't make it at 4PM, let Tom Purcell know and he can get you assigned to a later shift.
Non Club members are welcome as well. Recruit your friends and family! Our goal is to get 20 volunteers. Your effort helps the PRC as we receive $30.00 from the race organizer for each volunteer. Participation will also increase your chances of receiving a Boston Marathon Number in our annual marathon number lottery.
If you are interested contact Tom Purcell or sign-up on the PRC bulletin board.We had A GREAT Volunteer turnout for The Morgan Corporate Challenge.

A big THANKS YOU goes out to all the Club Members who helped with support during
our clubs three long Marathon training runs.
You gave up a portion of your Saturday mornings to help out other club members in
their Training and it was ver much appreciated
Also thank you to everyone who came out on Marathon Day to give us support and encouragement
along the course. It was very much appreciated.
The Boston Marathon is a great event for the club. From the members who ran it, to the members who gave support and encouragement, it helps to bring us all together and the post race party
at the Dogwood is a good way to end a nice day.
Dorothy Giarla, Julie O'Connor, Sarah Hull, Peter Meager, Beth Delahunty, Tom Purcell, Cindy Gillian, Walter Burgess, Nellie Moore, Carol Hani and Julie Connors
CONGRATULATIONS to all the Parkway Running Club Members who completed the

Traditionally PRC has a lottery for Boston Marathon numbers for club members each year.
The BAA gives the club 5 invitational applications.
Club names are deawn from a hat. You have an opportunity to have your name in the hat several times.
Each volunteer event puts your name in the hat. Each club member has a name in for membership in the club.
The club has a list of events that members can volunteer for.
1. YMCA Triathlon
2. Diane's Santa Scamper
3. Tufts health Care 10K
4. Chase Corporate Challenge
also by attending 3 of our 6 club meetings
For example, if you volunteer for 2 of the 4 events listed above, and attend 3 meetings your name will go in the hat 4 times (one for membership alone).
Just a reminder that PRC encourages all runners to start/renew their USA track and Field memberships. Why is this important? For a number of reasons:
(1) Every year, PRC receives a number of waivers for the Boston marathon. These waivers allow runners who have not yet met their qualifying times to "bypass the system" and get an official race number. The number of waivers PRC receives can be related to the # of PRC folks who are active members in USATF. So if you want to run Boston -- or even if you merely want to help out PRC friends who want to run -- your mentership in USATF is really important'
(2) USATF membership is cheap, comes with cool runner benefits (e.g., a local newletter) and is a great way to support the sport we all love....
How do you join USATF? Simple. Goto USATF New England and scroll down to the bottom and click on Membership Benefits. There is a form you can fill out online. Please note, the PRC club # is 176.
