ST. PATRICK'S DAY AT THE CLADDAGH IRISH PUB
LOCATION: CLADDAGH NORTHSIDE, DOWNTOWN
The Jaycees first fundraiser for 2007 is here! On St. Patrick's Day, we are going to help the Claddagh staff their party tents. As in years past, there are 2 sites - downtown and the northside near 96th and Keystone. Each site needs 30 volunteers, broken into 2 shifts of 15 volunteers. The shift times are 3:30 PM to 8:00 PM, and 7:30 PM to 12:30 AM. We are going to be partnering with other groups to help staff the event, but for each volunteer slot that is filled with a partnering group, that's less funds going to the Indy Jaycees. This is a fun event that will bring much needed funds to the Chapter, so let us know which shift you are available to volunteer!

Indianapolis Jaycees Relay for Life Team - June 2007
Location: Indianapolis or Lawrence

The Indianapolis Jaycees want to form a Relay for Life Team. Each year thousands of teams form to raise money for cancer research. In 1985 Dr. Gordy Klatt, a cancer surgeon, spent 24 hours walking or running to raise money for his local American Cancer Society. Dr. Klatt asked friends, family, and patients to walk or run with him. He raised $27,000. Now years later, this event is nationwide. Relay for Life typically involves more than 3 million participants and raises more than $250 million for research. A team is formed of 8 to 15 people. Each team is asked to raise a minimum of $100. If you want to help advance cancer research, please help the Jaycees form a team. Contact Traci Powell at 791-1351 or marketingvp@indyjaycees.org.
