Sunday, December 5th, 2004,  5:00pm - 3rd Annual SFARC Christmas Party, Sioux Falls, SD
This year's SFARC Christmas social (and optional 4 mile run thru the Christmas lights at Yankton Trails park) will
begin at 5:00pm. The run (for those running) begins behind the Harold's Photo location on 41st St. in Sioux Falls. The club
will provide food and drinks, but we ask if you feel energetic and feel like baking or bringing food along with you, that is certainly ok! The run is optional, you do not need to run to attend this social. We'll have plenty of food for runners and those who choose not to do the 4 mile run. We will also have a few door prizes. If you would like to renew your membership, or join as a new member for 2005, you can do that as well. Last year's party was a huge success and we hope to see you all again Sunday, December 5th, 2004 at 5:00pm.
Any questions?? E-mail any of the club officers.
