Hello All,

This is the last week to sign up to volunteer for our Flying Pig BLT
Station! Again, the event takes place on Sunday May 6, 2018. There is
still time to make your travel plans. I am putting out a special
challenge to my Cincinnati Chapter to step up and show the affiliate
what we are made of.
The Cincinnati Flying Pig Marathon is celebrating their 20th
anniversary and we can be proud to be a part of it.

For the third year in a row, we will line up at Mile 9 of the Half
Marathon, on Madison Road, and cheer on runners and hand out Puffs
tissues to them as they go by. For this task, the affiliate will get
paid $500! All we need to do is make sure we have 30 members, family
and friends signed up to participate. For those of you who were there,
you will remember how much the runners appreciated us, not only for
the tissues, but for the moral support we were able to provide. This
is a great way for us to give back to the community, while getting the
brand of the National Federation of the Blind of Ohio out in the
public!

On the morning of May 6, we will plan to meet in the GCB parking lot
at 1501 Madison Rd Cincinnati OH 45206 at 6:30 AM. We will then walk
down to our spot along Madison Rd at Mile 9 and get ourselves ready
for the runners. We are usually done by 9:30 AM. Then it's time for a
hearty breakfast. More specific details will  follow.

As of today, we only have 10 volunteers, and we are required to have
30. The last day to register is April 27, 2018. Please talk to your
chapter members and make your travel plans soon! Thank you so much for
your service.

Here are the instructions to register as a volunteer:

1) Follow the direct link below to the online volunteer registration site:

The National Federation of the Blind knows that blindness is not the
characteristic that defines you or your future. Every day we raise the
expectations of blind people, because low expectations create
obstacles between blind people and our dreams. You can live the life
you want; blindness is not what holds you back.
