 COUNTDOWN 4 !! Â
Just 4 weeks until we all meet for our
fabulous weekend at Disney!
By now you've made your AIR TRAVEL &
OTHER RESERVATIONS, right?
As I run through the snow I think of the
warm air (hopefully!) of
COACH’S CORNER

Ron
Kaufman sent an email to
those of us on the email list telling
us he is "pumped" and raring to go
for his full marathon.
Thanks for
sharing your greeting with all of us, Ron! You'll have a great run simply being out
there for the Children!
How about the rest of you?
Getting pumped? Wired? Geeked? We'll have a grand time celebrating NACoA's
birthday and your wonderful efforts.
AIR TRAVELERS: remember to pack your marathon gear in a bag
for the overhead compartment. After all this work, you don't want to lose
your essentials.
Are you making your list and checking it twice for the things you
need to have on hand for your walk/run? We each have our own special needs, but some
of the things you should consider:
< bandaids
< running socks
< food: Gu, PowerBar
<
anti-inflammatory meds
< gloves
< sandals
<
disposable clothes
<
rain poncho
<
fanny pack
< old
glasses
< ice
packs
< Vitamin
E, Aloe, joint rub, Vaseline
<
nail clippers
<
herbal teas

OUR
fundraising
Many of us are having
great success getting donations through letter-writing.
It's an especially difficult time this year
for many charities, in the wake of 9/11 and the economy. It seems, sadly, that charities who work hard
for CHILDREN are especially wanting in donations. So it's more important than ever that you
make this last push for people to reach into their pockets for The Children. Suggest holiday gifts as donations to NACoA in the names of
loved ones.
