[BARC-List] Fall public service events

[Brett Smith]

Hi BARC folks,

We have two public service events lined up this fall, and you can sign
up for both right now.

The first is the Jimmy Fund Walk on Sunday, September 24. This is the
Jimmy Fund’s annual fundraising walk along the Boston Marathon route.
There are positions available to work with a medical team at each rest
stop along the route, so there’s a variety of locations and volunteer
times available. Tell your friends, too—we’re really eager to build up
the team size for this year, especially along the earlier parts of the
route. To sign up, just e-mail me back to let me know, and I’ll add you
to our roster.

The second is the BAA Half Marathon on Sunday, October 8. As usual for
BAA events, we’ll work with medical teams at different points along the
route to provide them with any necessary communication, including EMS
dispatch requests if necessary. Volunteer registration for this event is
on the BAA’s web site <http://baa.tfaforms.net/workflows/start/1>.

If you have questions about either event, please don’t hesitate to ask.

Thanks for all that you do, and 73,

​
