Join the PCVRC team in this fun event to support Cupid’s Charity, a great cause to find a cure for neurofibromatosis Type 1 (NF1), a genetic disorder of the peripheral nervous system that causes tumors to grow on the nerves anywhere in the body at any time.
CUPID’S UNDIE RUN IS COMMITTED TO FINDING A CURE FOR NF!
Where: DECO on Market Street in Wilmington
When: Saturday, February 25th
Every February, thousands of undie runners in cities all across the U.S. come together, whether it be in-person or virtually, to support those affected by NF, a genetic disorder that causes tumors to grow on nerves throughout the body and affects 1 in every 3,000 births. Cupid’s Undie Run kicks off with drinking and dancing, then we jog it out with a mile(ish) run and end it all with an epic dance party!
Info about the charity: https://cupids.org/cupids-undie-run/

All members are invited to join us at Timothy’s in Newark where we’ll recap 2022, present awards, elect officers (President, VP, Secretary, Treasurer) and preview coming events.
Food will be provided by PCVRC and there will be a Cash Bar. Members are free, guests are welcome for $10. For those who have not renewed, we can plan to process membership dues at the meeting or in advance via the PCVRC website.
We hope to see all of our members and sponsors there!
