Runners,
The Jay Cooperider Memorial 5K race will be held on April 27th at 9AM
in Cumberland Park in West Lafayette, IN. One reason this is such a popular
race is the proceeds are given to Mental Health America and the Lafayette
Crisis Center (and many people remember Jay). Usually there are between
600-800 runners in this race.

The times for packet pickup and registration are Friday, April 26 from 5-7pm.
The volunteers will be setting up from 3-5 and cleaning up until 8pm. This is also the pasta
dinner and raffle night. It is at the Morton Center in West Lafayette.

Because of the work involved in putting this race together, Race Director: Donna
Belile-Barker would like to have some volunteers for Friday April 26th for
registration, set up and clean up. Please sign up to volunteer on the WRRC site.

We really need helpers for this event so please sign up if possible.
This Club has come a long way and I am proud of all of you for stepping up and helping the Community.

Just a side note: The Circular Logic Marathon was a tremendous Success!!
