Job Choice: Circle your choice (s) Set-Up Registration Food Distribution Water Distribution Course Guide Driver Clean-Up Trash Management Anywhere you need me! Want to help out at the 5K, but aren’t sure how? See below for Race Day job descriptions!

Set-up (6:30-8:00 am) Early Risers! Come help set up tables, bring out the food, put up signage, and get ready for Race Day!

Registration (7:30-9:30 am) Register Day-of registrants. No special skills required. We can show you how to do the registration.

Food Distribution (8:00-10:30 am) Hand out donated food such as bananas and pretzels to race participants.

Water Distribution (8:00-10:00 am) Stand at the end of the race and hand out water to runners coming in. We will also need you to fill the coolers with water and ice. If we have a really hot day, you will have a very crucial role!

Water Station Distribution (7:15-9:15 am) We are putting a water station in Penn Park this year. We will need you to set up the stand, fill cups of water, hand them out to racers and clean up the cups at the end. All cups will be composted so bring them back for proper disposal. If we have a really hot day, you will have a very crucial role!

First Aid (7:30-10:30 am) We are looking for nurses who can man our first aid table. Ideally we will have two, in case one needs to assist with someone on the course.

Course Guide (5K) (7:15-9:15 am) The 5K race has many road crossings and turns. The police will be stationed to help with road crossings. Course guides are positioned along the way to show runners where to go, particularly at intersections and turns. We’ll need your loudest voices to CHEER on runners! Course guides must arrive early and will be driven to their spots by Drivers (you will be assigned a driver). You can then arrange with your driver whether you will be picked up for a ride back or if you will walk back on your own. Spots close to school will be accessed by walking.

Drivers (7:15-8:00 am Drivers drop course guides off at their positions. (We will assign riders to you). You can also sign up to be a course guide, if you like. If you sign up for both positions, we will put you in a spot where you can easily park your car for the race duration. Please be sure to let us know how many people you can carry in your car when you sign up.

Clean-up (10:00-11:00 am) At the end of the race, we need people to take down the tables, help put everything away, and generally clean up after the race. If you are a late riser, this a great job for you. You can come down at your leisure, watch the race, and then help clean up. This is also a great job for RUNNERS. You can run in the race and help too!

Trash Management (8:00-11:00 am) The 5k aims to be as green as possible so we recycle and compost on Race Day. We need people to stand by each set of trash cans and make sure that everything goes in the right spot.

Photographers (7:30-11:00 am) Have a camera? Come take pictures of the festivities! We’ll need you to come early to get pictures of volunteers and set-up and stay through and get pictures of all the award winners and clean up. Pictures will be posted.

Anywhere You Need Me Please volunteer here if you are willing to show up and find out what your job is. Most likely we will send you out to fill in for a course guide, but we may also need you around for general tasks that arise on the day.

Dear PAS Family Members: March 2018

Have you heard? June 3 will be here before we know it! We are excited to announce our 8th Annual PAS Run for Art and Science on Sunday, June 3. Thanks to generous donations from families like yours, we are able to provide a full time art teacher; a rich array of afterschool programming, including our first ever basketball teams; and extra-curriculars like robotics, geobee, WHYY Media Lab, Coding, Girls Who Run and Vetri Cooking Lab, 1 Mile Club, and 5K club.

New for school year 2017-18 is after school programming focusing on fitness and running. Our annual race gives us a clear goal that promotes exercise and academic support. Your support is needed now more than ever, and is greatly appreciated by our staff, students and families. Show your appreciation for the amazing new clubs this year by signing and to run and to help others run as well. Spring is an exciting time at PAS as parents, students and staff start to think ahead to warmer weather and get ready to run! Let’s work together so that everyone can run on June 3 in the 8th Annual PAS 5K Run for Art and Science!

Historically, our annual race draws 600+ runners. Our fundraising goal for this year's race is $40,000. Our race is our school's single largest fundraiser. It is successful because each and every PAS family participates at some level. Sponsorship helps us meet the academic and developmental needs of our children. The Home & School Association of PAS is a volunteer organization and a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit. Your contribution is tax deductible.

Please complete the reverse side to register for the race and to help others join in this fun wellness community event!
