Dear New England Walker members and friends,
It's
that time of year again! Once again the New England Walkers have been
asked to help at the 2014 JP Morgan Chase Corporate Challenge,
3.5 mile road race.
The race begins at 7:15 p.m., Tuesday, June 24 at the Boston Common.The
course heads down Charles Street, left onto Beacon Street, left onto
Arlington Street, and down Commonwealth Avenue to Kenmore Square. It
returns down Commonwealth Avenue, right on Arlington, left on Boylston
Street, and finishes back on Charles Street. The event is held in 12
cities. The top-finishing teams in all 12 cities will qualify to compete
in the Championship Race, held in October in New York City.
Our
volunteer duties will include marshaling along the course and perhaps a water
table at the finish. New England Walker volunteers will receive a
volunteer T-shirt and will have their memberships extended while helping
earn revenue for our club. If you can lend a hand please call me at
857-919-3945 or send me email at
bjka...@gmail.com.
On race day, we'll meet near the volunteer tent on the Boston Common (
see map) starting at
5PM. Please be at the meeting place by 6:30 to give yourself time to get to your station. You can reach me on the Boston Common at
857-919-3945.
Thanks, and hope to see you on Tuesday!
Beth
