The Chemical Engineering Department Spring 5k will be held on Saturday, April 8 at Circleville Park. The race starts at 9am. The ChE 5k is being run in conjunction with the “Bunny Hop 5K” to support the Four Diamonds Fund, an organization that raises money for pediatric cancer research.

To fully register for the 5k, please do both of the following steps:

1) Register through the ChE Department.

Email Mike Janik (mjanik@psu.edu) to let him know you will be participating. In your email, also let him know if you need help getting to the race. Carpools will be arranged for those that need them.

2) Register through the Bunny Hop 5k.

• If you read this before Thursday March 23, go to the Bunny Hop 5k website and register for the race online. The registration fee not only helps support the Four Diamonds Fund, but also includes a T-shirt.

When filling out the online registration, when asked “how did you hear about the 5k”, you are encouraged to respond “Megan Petrine”. Megan is a National Honor Society member at State College High School, and the daughter of Lisa Petrine in our department main office. Megan gets community service credits if you include her name.

• If you read this on or after Thursday, March 23 you can register for the race from 8am to 9am on the day of the race. Again, the registration fee not only helps support the Four Diamonds Fund, but also includes a T-shirt.

More information about the 5k can also be found on Facebook and Google Calendar.
