Looking Forward to ‘CoffeeBRAKES’ and Run To The River

Hopefully not at the same time…seriously though, two quick announcements for upcoming events (also don’t forget the Richmond Folk Festival from Oct. 9-11):

The CoffeeBRAKE is a traditional program from Off Campus Student Services with USC&A, that allows sponsors to gather or distribute information to students. This is an excellent opportunity for program promotions, membership drives, and volunteer opportunities. Starting Fall 2009, programs will be weekly, one sponsor at a time in the new Off Campus Student Services office, Room 119, in the Commons. Talk to 75 to 100 students per CoffeeBRAKE. For details on how to sponsor a Commuter CoffeeBRAKE in the University Student Commons, go to our website.

Run to the River is a challenging 10k hill race, 5k community walk and 1k fun run to benefit the Neighborhood Resource Center (NRC). Runners will tackle three hills as they dash over cobblestone streets, through historic neighborhoods, and along the banks of the James River. Enjoy live music, refreshments, a free massage or a health check at the finish line party and health fair. Run to the River is one of the most difficult and scenic races in Richmond – and one of the most rewarding. All event proceeds directly support the NRC, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization providing quality resources to families with limited means in the Greater Fulton community of Richmond, VA. The NRC helps youth achieve academic success through individual tutoring and a sliding-scale Montessori preschool. Art and music programs provide youth creative outlets to express themselves. Parents earn their GED and conduct job searches at the NRC. To register or learn more about the race, visit
