Update #3 (10 weeks to the NJM / LBH Weekend)

 

Saturday Events sponsored by Investors Savings Bank, Long Branch:

If you happen to be in or near Long Branch on the day before Marathon Sunday please consider bringing your children, your nieces/nephews and or in some cases your grandkids to our Saturday morning, May 3, events. This event is devoted to kids of all ages!

 

Please go to: http://www.njmarathon.org/saturdayevents.htm for the entire schedule and slide show from 2007.

 

All proceeds will benefit Sudden Unexplained Death in Childhood (SUDC) Program, part of the CJ Foundation for SIDS (www.sudc.org) and Family Promise of Monmouth County (www.familypromisemc.org).

 

Registration:

Please check-out the Registration Update posted on www.njmarathon.org. While you are there please take the time to Confirm Your Registration. This will only take a few moments but will make Marathon Weekend Registration much easier!

 

Baggage Drop-off Marathon Morning:

Thanks to our host hotel, Ocean Place Resort & Spa, we will again be using the Atlantic Ballroom for your baggage of warm clothes for after your triumphant finish.

 

Our New Baggage System: Plan to attach a tag that will come from your Bib # to your bag prior to drop-off. Simply enter the correct doors base on Half or Full/Relay and drop your bag in the corral marked by the last digit on your Bib #.

 

Example: Bib # 1456 is dropped in corral 6; Bib # 6542 is dropped in corral 2.

 

This system has been put in place for its simplicity. You drop the bag and you return to the same corral for pick-up. Security, at ballroom exits, will check your Bib # with your tagged bag after your event.

 

As always, please do not leave valuables in the baggage. We can not be responsible for lost car keys, cell phones, little black books, $, etc.

 

The New Jersey Marathon and Bosco's Buddies will again be at the Los Angeles Marathon Expo, Feb. 29 and Mar. 1. If anyone is registered for LA please plan to stop by our booth. We'd love to see you!

 

Running regards,

Art Castellano, Director
