OK PhillyFIT GANG!
A few updates for the 7th PhillyFIT BASH and our charity 5K coming this
Sunday, the 27th. We are watching the weather closely, our event is rain or
shine...just a matter of moving things indoors at Velocity vs. setting up outside.
The 5K and the 1 mile walk (also a Dog walk) has no changes regardless of
weather, it's going to be fantastic, I love the course. Registration begins at
8:30a.m., and we start the event at 9:30 a.m. sharp! You can get the form
online _www.phillyfit.com_ (http://www.phillyfit.com/) . The BASH opens up at
10:30 for the awards ceremony and rolls right into our main (BASH) event. The
BASH is everything you can imagine like a massive party, with a live jazz band
and great food, 75 vendors who are interactive and working with you/showing
you how to work out, talk diets/nutrition, massage/shiatsu/reiki/etc., hair
and makeup styling, 76er's Dance Team performing - along with endless local
dance and martial arts demos. Kids moon bounce, face painting, football and
sports games/challenges, too much to mention it all.
For the 5K, we have added a kids awards category, with all different ranges.
That wasnt in our advertisement, but we have decided to add it. I dont know
the specific levelsright now, but will later tomorrow if anyone wants to
email me or call to find out.
Vendors: we'll be mailing you your 2 wrist bands for entry to the bash,
otherwise, cost for everyone to get in is only $5.00 per person. Kids under 5
free. Runners and walkers of the 5K or 1 mile get in free too! PLEASE: get a
tent for over your booth. SAMS/COSCO have them for approx. $170 they pop up so
easy, and are useful for so many things. It's worth the investment. Think
about wind too...be sure you have paper weights, etc. for your flyers, etc.
VOLUNTEERS NEEDED still for set up and break down, and the 5K course.
The location of the BASH and 5K is so easy to get to, just off of Street Rd,
and basically "on" Jacksonville Rd., Velocity Sports Performance Center is
located at 700 Veterans Circle, Warminster, PA. We will have sign holders on
major corners in the area to help you if you are not familiar with Warminster.
It's 8 minutes from the Turnpike or Rt. 1, 15 minutes from 95/off of STREET
RD (which is the major road in this area).

PS: I wanted to let you guys know, PhillyFIT has agreed to partner with
"City Chase", a great new event that is coming to Philadelphia on May 3rd. I
encourage everyone to join me at City Chase which is just one week after the
PhillyFIT Bash. City Chase is a one-day urban adventure race that NBC Chicago has
billed as "A real-life reality TV show...Think Fear Factor meets Amazing
Race" that you can compete in. It’s a full day of navigating your way around
the city on foot and using SEPTA to compete in physical, mental and humorous
challenges. They did it last year in Chicago and had people rappelling down
towers, playing with live snakes and getting on stage and singing before a live
audience. Not to mention, there is a charitable component as well—last year
Chicago participants raised over $8,000 for Special Olympics from strangers
on the street! The Philly team of two with the best time will advance to the
2008 US National Championships. The winners of the US National Championships
will represent the entire US in the '08 World Championships.
To learn more about this great event, I encourage everyone to stop by the
City Chase tent that will be at the PhillyFIT Bash! They have asked me to see
if we can find them any volunteers for City Chase, visit citychase.com.
