Thanks again for making the Inaugural EUA-Mexico 10K a huge success.  The date for fulfilling our promise to plant trees on behalf of every runner is quickly approaching.  On August 29th, 2009, team leads will meet for preparatory training session.  The following day, August 30th, all volunteers will converge on a site in the mountains just outside Santiago to begin planting the 6,000 trees that have been donated through the incredible commitment shown by this year's race participants.

We have 20 team lead positions and 200 volunteer positions - each of which is important to making August 30th's  reforestation effort a success.  If you would like to join us for this incredible opportunity, please respond to this email (greenrace2009@gmail.com), including the names, email addresses and phone numbers of those participating.  As spots are limited, volunteer positions will be assigned on a first come, first serve basis.

Pronatura Noreste A.C. and the U.S. Consulate General in Monterrey are extremely grateful to GMAC for making this tree-planting effort possible.  We and GMAC very much look forward to your participation on August 30, 2009.
