Race Judicata
August 10, 2006

President Jesse Reyes and the IJA would like to enter a team in the Chicago Volunteer Legal Services' annual Race Judicata, which will take place on August 10, 2006 at 6:30 p.m., at Upper Hutchinson Field, near Columbus and Balbo. Race Judicata is a 5K event, and you can run or walk "With All Deliberate Speed," if you choose to participate. Those who have attended in the past have found the event to be fun and entertaining.

This year, we would like to have an even better showing than last. Our team name remains, "With All Deliberate Speed." If you intend to participate in the race, please register under the team name "With All Deliberate Speed." That way, we can coordinate all participants and ensure a good turnout of judges.

You can register on line http://active.com/event_detail.cfm?event_id=1314174 by faxing your form to (312) 332-1460) or by mailing or hand delivering it to the CVLS office, at 100 N. LaSalle St., Suite 900. Try this link for more information about the race and registration: http://www.cvls.org/judicata.htm.

The IJA will furnish a t-shirt for those judges participating. Please let Maureen McClelland know the size that you wish at 312/431-1283 or info@ija.org by July 25th. We'll plan to meet at a designated spot on the day of the race. So watch for future announcements as the date approaches.

As you know, through the CVLS Foundation, volunteer attorneys have served hundreds of thousands of clients with everyday legal problems. These clients would otherwise not have access to legal services. Last year, Race
Judicata raised $150,000 to assist CVLS' provision of legal services. Hope to see you on August 10th. Stay tuned for future announcements.

Judges Nancy Katz, Rita Novak, Richard Stevens, Race Coordinators.
