Week of July 23rd
Rain, rain go away.... all 3-Day walkers want to play!! ;)
Yes, this rain is a bit depressing, isn't it! So now we need to learn to be creative with our training time. While walking outside is optimal, sometimes Mother Nature is not cooperative. Mall walking is a great opportunity...plus it could turn into a fundraiser. Wear your 3-Day shirt and talk to everyone about what you are doing! Your training session could definitely be a bonus!

3-Day Camp Post Office
I have had a few folks ask me about the 3-Day Camp Post Office. This is a relatively new thing the 3-Day has started doing. Located in Camp Services is a Post Office. Friends, family and supporters can send you mail during your event. You would be surprise how a few kind words can make a world of difference. :)
Here is the Post Office Information:
Only letters will be accepted - no boxes or packages.
Letters must be postmarked 2 weeks prior to the event to ensure delivery at the 3-Day Camp Post Office.
Send to:3-Day Camp Post Office
[Participants Name] (I would put the City too)
PO Box 577886Chicago, IL 60657-7886
Unclaimed mail will be available by request for 2 weeks after the event. Anything still in our hands after those two weeks will become property of the 3-Day and will be destroyed.
