2736.0. "St. Jude's Bike-A-Thon, 5/7, in Princeton" by USCTR1::NORTON (Kathy Norton) Sun Mar 13 1994 15:40

    On Saturday, May 7, I'll be running a Bike-A-Thon in Princeton, MA,  
    for St. Jude's Children's Hospital.  (Rain date 5/14)  If anybody 
    would be interested in helping out, I can use all the help I can get!

    We have a 1.1 mile loop that the kids ride as many times as they can 
    between 9:00 a.m. and noon.  Most of the kids who rode last year were 
    between 8 and 15 years old.  They each carry a lap card that gets 
    stamped each time they go around so we can keep track of how many laps 
    they've ridden.  For many of them, this was the longest ride they had 
    ever taken and they were SO proud of themselves!  With just about 18 
    kids, we raised almost $1300!  
  
    I need help with all areas of the ride - registration, refreshments,
    mechanics, lap card stampers, marshalls, etc.  It's really a lot of fun, 
    we'll be done by noon, and I'll buy the pizza afterwards.  If anyone 
    would like to help, you can send me mail at USCTR1::NORTON, call me 
    at DTN 297-5042, or call me at home (508)464-5347.

    Thank you!
