If you have room for an announcement, here’s more:

To get you through your muggy runs in the coming weeks you can begin to think about running alongside the sound of jingle bells and snowflakes. Registration for the annual Jingle Bell Run & Walk for Arthritis in Portsmouth & Concord, NH and Freeport, ME is now ready. See our calendar for dates and times. Go to www.arthritis.org to register on-line or call to get an early registration flyer. (Full brochures will be mailed to all past runners in September.) The early registration fee is $15 before September 1. Also, we have added several new incentives this year.

1)       We will waive your registration fee and give you a free long-sleeve shirt if you register on-line and pledge to raise a minimum of $50. On-line fundraising is extremely easy and if you start now, you have four months to raise $50—that’s about $13 per month!

2)       If you register for the above by October 1 you will be entered into a drawing for a $25 Dick’s Sporting Goods gift certificate.

3)       We will do the above and customize your shirts with your team name or logo if you join as a team and pledge to raise $500 total. (Concord & Freeport only.)

4)       Team captains will be given prizes and special, collectible, JBR&W shirts for forming a team.

 

For more information about the event or registration call 1-800-639-2113 or info.nne@arthritis.org.

 

Thanks so much and we’ll see you there!
