SparkCon - Downtown Raleigh this weekend & 5K Race in Wake Forest for BackPack Buddies

Finally we get a break in the weather and it is time to play outside! There are two great events that I personally plan to be involved with this weekend. I started out this  morning in Wake Forest  working registration for a BackPack Buddies 5K Race & here is why we do it my co-worker Rich Bove' & I along with a few other fabulous volunteers got to greet the runners and their families as they checked in. There was also a 1 mile fun run and a kids run. Oh my were the kids cute!

People were also able to drop off donations of snack foods that go directly to this program. If you do not know much about this program it is a much needed program. There are regular drop off spots for food / snack donations like Wake Forest Chamber of Commerce, Dinners at Home in Wake Forest & The Factory also in Wake Forest.

If you have any questions about this program, want to volunteer or want to know what foods are appropriate contact Rebecca Warriner you can read about why she does this and how to contact her. Today's event supports the Wake Forest & Rolesville programs.

More fun to be had this weekend!     what

Another great event in the Raleigh Area going on Downtown this weekend is SparkCon! This is a wonderful event that started Thursday and goes until Sunday Sept 19th. This is an outdoor event in the streets of all kinds of art, music, fashion...to name a few. Check out the calendar of events here for SparkCon!

Whatever you choose to do this weekend make the best of it and spend time with the ones you love! It is easy to enrich your life, it is easier to enrich your life if you turn off the tv & get off of the couch (unless your favorite college team is on or you are reading a good book!)

Have a great September weekend!
