NeighbourLink to participate in the Calgary Marathon!

Every year, over 40 local charities participate in the Calgary Marathon’s ‘Charity Challenge.’ For the 2012 race NeighbourLink has joined the ranks of these fine organizations – and we’d love to have your support on May 27th!

There are three ways you can champion Team NeighbourLink:
1) Join our team and participate alongside us in the 5 km walk and run.
2) Form your own team or participate as an individual.
3) Sponsor us ‘from the sidelines.’

Either way, all the financial donations that you make or fundraise will go directly to NeighbourLink’s $15,000 goal – and contribute greatly to our efforts to care and provide for Calgary’s poor. To make a donation, click here: SPONSOR.

If you decide to participate in the marathon, you’ve got another decision to make – which race you’ll enter. Your options are the following:
1) Full marathon (42 km)
2) Half marathon (21 km)
3) 10 km walk and run
4) 5 km walk and run (Team NeighbourLink is participating in this one!)
5) Kids marathon

After that it’s time to officially register. Register online here: REGISTER or contact Andrea at NeighbourLink and she'll direct you how to do that: 403-538-7389.

Lastly, we’re spicing up our participation by adding a dash of competition. There will be prizes for the teams with the most members, best outfits, greatest mascot and largest amount of money raised.

So there you have it! Grab your friends, co-workers, church group or family members and join us at Stampede Park on May 27th. Don’t forget your running shoes!
