In August, no less.

Say, the 22nd.

We need a venue, and a charity, and we need to start collection donations. Starting today, all monies sent earmarked "0.05K donation" will be applied.

I am so excited about this.
Picking the charity, the site, making it real.

We had a good brainstorming session tonight post-somacow and 8/22 it is! Save the date!

You guys mentioned a charitable organization called "New Hope" the other night.

If that is New Hope For Kids, I'm down with that.

Thank you all-to those who have donated already!

We'll have more details as we get them. I'm just super excited about it. I'm not sure why, I mean it will be hot...oh yeah, it's short! And there will be water stations. That just makes me giggle.

Dude, it's 0.05K!

I guess you could crawl or roll. Wait, you could do "the worm".

It's 165 feet!

If we can get someone to get a mist fan, that would be awesome.

We have a charity!
Rock For Hunger http://www.rockforhunger.org/

http://twitter.com/rockforhunger

We are looking forward to working with this local organization who does great things for the community.

As mentioned before,  you can donate through our paypal somacow@gmail.com and just tag it as "Run for the Cure" or something else obvious. We also will have participants get donations for every foot/meter they go. It is 0.05k guys...that's just 168 feet or so Smiley

All donations will go to Rock For Hunger.

More details to follow!

Do you have a venue yet?  A time?

Is there a list of those participating that we can sponser?

Can we make special request?  i.e.  Jay running like Phoebe Buffay,  Mickey skipping with hands at shoulder height - elbows tucked into sides,  Geoff running in slow-mo, those three and Jen arm in arm skipping while singing "We're off to see the Wizard"....

Working on the venue and time...
We'll make a list (or people can post here) of those participating.

I think special requests can be worked out Smiley
