Hey there MAD Clubbers! I have some last minute details regarding the Nike Marathon for all you volunteers out there.

First of all, thank you all for signing up to support the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society by volunteering at the 2006 Nike Marathon!

There are a few guidelines that all volunteers should be aware of:
- Show up at Union Square to sign in at the Volunteers Tent (it'll be huge one right near the center of Union Square) by no later than 5AM. The first part of the race starts pretty early, so we need all the time we need to prepare the start area. You will receive your specific assignments from the race directors when you sign in with them, so show up early to get the more desirable jobs!

- Remember to sign in with both the race directors, AND with a MAD Club officer in order to receive credit for this event. You will receive your volunteer t-shirt when you sign in, so show up early if you want a smaller t-shirt since the smaller sizes tend to be the first to run out.

- Since this marathon is sponsored by Nike, the organization putting this event together asks all volunteers to refrain from wearing any clothing that explicitly displays any of Nike's competitor's logos. This means, please do not wear jackets, sweatshirts, shoes, etc. that have Adidas, Fila, or any other athletic brand's logo on it. If you have some cool Nike gear, be sure to wear it!

- Dress in layers because it will be very cold down at Union Square at 5 in the morning. Your volunteer t-shirt must be visible at all times during the event, so make it easy for yourself and wear something you can put the t-shirt over quickly!

If any problems come up or if you have any additional questions, please feel free to call me at 415-830-2371.

Thanks!
