Hi Ladies!
I just found out information about opportunities to get a free theme park ticket for volunteering at the
Disneyland 5k and 1/2 marathon. If you volunteer for 2 shifts, you can get a free theme park ticket. I think you need to be at least 12 years old to volunteer (and 15 years old to volunteer at the Expo).
As a volunteer for the 2009 Disneyland® Half Marathon Expo, Disney's Family Fun Run 5K & Kid Race, and Disneyland® Half Marathon, you will receive apparel, light snack per shift, and, if you meet the eligibility requirements, a Disneyland® theme park ticket. Theme park ticket distribution is based on minimum volunteer shifts worked. Each volunteer must work at least two volunteer shifts to be eligible for the complimentary Park admission. Each volunteer must also sign in and sign out for each shift to be eligible for the complimentary Park admission

So, you could volunteer for a couple shifts, run the 5k and have a free ticket to use on the block out day! I know people want to wake up at 4:15am to do a volunteer shift....or some 2:30am shifts are available too!!
If you can get a group of 50 to volunteer, then only 1 shift is required to get the free theme park tickets.
