Florida Striders Resolution Run
Florida Striders has asked that ClayARES support them for their 2016 Resolution Run on January 9, 2016. We will need a total of 10 operators to handle Net Control and points along the 5k & 10k routes. This run will start behind the Orange Park Kennel Club and run along River Rd., as well as through a few of the neighborhoods along the route. The run starts at 8:30am, so we will need to be setup and in position by 8:00am. The run should be completed well before noon.
Below is a sign up sheet to volunteer for this event. Please complete the information and you will be contacted with more information about the run.

Winter is coming, and so is an El Nino pattern in Florida
Floridians should brace themselves for a wet and wild winter, all thanks to El Nino.
The weather pattern happens every few years when the Pacific Ocean warms up around the equator. This year’s is one of the strongest El Ninos on record.
Craig Fugate, a former Floridian who once headed the state’s emergency management operations and who is now the Federal Emergency Management Agency Administrator, said the last time Florida saw such a strong El Nino, dozens of people died from tornadoes.
“You just don’t think of Florida as a tornado-prone state,” said Fugate.
