First of all, thank you to all of you who made contributions to the team. We're on track to donate more than $1,000 as of today. We will be matching contributions you've made with matches up to $250 from Hammock to the Nashville Adult Literacy Council, Nashville Zoo, Big Brothers Big Sisters of Middle Tennessee. We will also be making a donation to the Legal Aid Society of Middle Tennessee fon behalf of Salas & Slocum, who are donating their front yard for our tent set-up. Thanks again for participating with us in this winning effort to help out some well-deserving organizations.

We'd love to see you on race day. If you are running, look for us around mile 8, to your left on 16th Avenue (Music Row headed toward the Roundabout) in the parking lot in front of the law firm of Salas & Slocum. There, rising above Music Row will be a pavilion festooned with Hammock balloons. We'll offer a big "Hooah" or "Oorah" to you when you pass us by.

Special parking instructions:
During the race, 16th & 17th Aves. are closed
so park to the east or west of those streets.

Underneath our Team Hammock tent will be a table groaning under the weight of a spread of breakfast savories and assorted morning beverages. If you are watching the race, come by and watch it with us and enjoy what we'll have to share. No word as to whether the reunited Led Zeppelin will appear for this event at our tent. I think at this late date, it's unlikely. But we'll have music and it will be appropriate for kids of all ages.

If you are somewhere else on the course, look for our team members wearing the home white uniforms of Team Hammock and cheer for us. Representing Team Hammock from Gallatin, TN Patrick "the Hometown Kid" Ragsdale; Winchester, TN's Barbara Mathieson; Hailing from Phenix City, AL, Rex Hammock; from Aberdeen, MS, Kerri Davis; from Montevallo, AL, Jamie Roberts; the pride of Paintsville, KY, Lena Anthony; Columbia, Ohio's own Megan Pacella; Barbara Logan from Memphis, TN; and John Lavey from Annandale, VA.

Everybody be safe and have a good time.

Bonus link: Here is a Google Maps "Street View" of approximately where the Team Hammock tent will be. We hope to see you there Saturday morning.
