There are 2 days until the Walkathon!

(1) Steve Yip has made what can only be called a bold prediction: "We will raise $100,000 by Friday." Help prove Steve right and make a donation on his behalf at https://npo.networkforgood.org/Donate/Donate.aspx?npoSubscriptionId=7556.

(2) Our volunteers continue to work feverishly on the front lines in the final days before the Walkathon-- reports from Central say that the office has become "like a factory" with volunteers all over the place, working both inside and outside the office.

(3) Showing our public face: The final Walkathon Press Conference will take place today at CPC Manhattan Community Services Center at 1 pm.

(4) Not to beat a dead horse, but it wouldn't be a terrible idea to register to walk today. Come on over to Central (150 Elizabeth Street) from the hours of 9 to 6. It may take five minutes-- if there's a line.

(5) Craziness at Columbus Park: Our Family Day Fair, which starts at 11 on Saturday, is sure to be a great time for the whole family. Activities will include face painting, a magic show, and even an apperance by representatives of the New Jersey Nets. So if you hate walking-- well, there's other fun stuff to do also!

(6) Did I mention the weather? The forecast still calls for beautiful weather come Saturday morning.
