In Brief: The Columbus Bar Blawg

Race Judicata, the annual 5k charity run/walk, hosted by The Ohio State University Moritz College of Law’s Student Bar Association, is just around the corner! On Friday, September 23, 2011, participants from the law school will join with members of the Columbus legal community in support of the Columbus Bar Foundation, this year’s beneficiary.

The Moritz community continues to be grateful to the CBF and its donors for their sponsorship of a fellowship to a select Public Interest Law Foundation (PILF) Fellow working in Columbus during the summer. PILF raises money throughout the year from events and donor solicitations to sponsor Moritz students working at volunteer or low-paying public interest summer jobs. CBF is a major contributor and we are all thankful for the support!

This year we are excited to introduce some new elements to enhance the race experience and increase participation across the board, including a Virtual Runner option for those who are not able to attend the race but still wish to contribute. Every little bit helps our goal to get our Virtual Runner to cross the finish line!  Please click here to make your donation. Also new this year is the Prize Raffle. Everyone registered for the race will automatically be entered into a raffle for a variety of prizes, including a $100 gift card to Bonobos, and 12 personal training sessions at Body By Todd Private Fitness Studio in Worthington.

The race will be at pet-friendly Fred Beekman Park, so feel free to bring your best furry friend along! To continue the festivities post-race please join us for the Race Judicata After Party at Bar 23.   

The cost of registration is $20, which includes race participation, a race t-shirt, and cover for that night’s after party. Click here to register online or download a registration form (PDF).

Thank you for your support and see you at the Race!
