NAWMBA Keep the Pace 5k
Hey guys!! 

NAWMBA is hosting the 2nd Annual Keep the Pace 5K Run Saturday, May 1, 2010 from 5 p.m. – 9 p.m. at the LSU Parade Grounds to benefit the Charlotte Murray Pace Memorial MBA Scholarship.

On May 24, 2002, Pace graduated in the top 10% of her class from the LSU Flores MBA Program and was slated to begin her career as an internal auditor with Deloitte & Touche LLP’s Enterprise Risk Services. Exactly one week later, she was murdered. In the wake of her death, classmates and friends asked that a scholarship be established in her name to commemorate her life and achievements.

To register early for the event or for further information, please visit http://www.active.com/running/baton-rouge-la/keep-the-pace-5k-runwalk-2010. The cost for early registration is $20 for non-students and $15 for students. Registration the day of the event begins at 5:00pa.m. and will be $25. Food and music will be provided. Anyone wishing to contribute to the fund who does not want to run may send donations to:

You may also give donations directly to me, Lindsey DeSeamus, or Megan Taflinger if you wish to do so. We had a great turnout last year and this is a huge deal for the Pace family, so we want to get as much involvement as possible. Thanks so much in advance for your participation!!

Thank you!!
