Big doings on Saturday this week!
First: Cole Geschwind has organized a volunteer opportunity and would love to have some help! On Saturday morning, there is a run being done in the memory of a Mayo Clinic nurse who died of brain cancer this past year. Cole and friends will be staffing a water stop at McQuillan softball field to support this event. The plan is to go for a run following the volunteer commitment. Please contact Cole if there are questions!
Second: Our fundraiser! Coach Andrea has arranged a Barnes and Noble fundraiser on Saturday, September 27 to benefit the Friends of Mayo Running. Each runner is encouraged to get 2 people to head on over to Barnes and Noble to spend some money in support of our team! Here are some of the details of the fundraiser:
1. Barnes and Noble members will receive DOUBLE the discount (20% instead of 10%) on purchases made on Saturday!
2. Fundraiser dollars can be earned in the cafe as well as the regular merchandise (return is a sliding scale and is dependent on the amount of sales that we earn-between 10 and 20%)
3. Nook sales earn 5%
4. Online sales during the week of 9/27-10/2 will earn 10%. Use code 11434099 at checkout.
All you have to do is mention Friends of Mayo Running at checkout! We will have flyers available at practice to hand out. Please support this event!

Also...there will be time slots available for students and parents to sign up to help promote the event. Students can read to children who come in to the store. Students and parents can be at a table in the store to encourage shoppers to support our fundraiser! We are allowed to give flyers to anyone who approaches are table (we can't approach them, they have to come to us) so any ideas that you may have to get people to visit the table are welcome!
Look for the sign up to be coming at practice and online!
