Physics faculty are participating in the sixth annual — a Thanksgiving Day benefit — and inviting other people in the campus community to join in.

Professor Lloyd Knox said everyone’s welcome to join Team Physics (David Wittman, associate professor, is the captain). Or you can run (or walk) with another team or as an individual. However you do it, you’ll be helping the Yolo Food Bank, said Knox, vice president of the food bank’s board of directors.

The 5-kilometer run-walk on Thursday, Nov. 27, will start and end at Heritage Plaza, in front of the Woodland Opera House, Main and Second streets. Starting time is 8 a.m.; same-day registration and packet pickup start at 7.

Or, you can register in advance and pick up your packet in advance (4-6 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 26, at Heritage Plaza).

Advance registration:

• , until noon Monday (Nov. 24)
• At the Yolo Food Bank office, 1244 Fortna Ave., Woodland
• By mail, with this , to Yolo Food Bank, 1244 Fortna Ave., Woodland 95776.

Knox said he and his physics colleagues have two goals this year:

• To win the prize for largest registered team. (You’ll have the opportunity, at time of registration, to list “Team Physics” and captain David Wittman).
• To raise $4,600 for the food bank.

Knox, Wittman and Professor Richard Scalettar have pledged $2,300 to match other people’s donations, a dollar for a dollar.

Contributions can be made by checks made payable to “Yolo Food Bank” (with “Team Physics” in the memo line), and sent to Professor Knox in the Department of Physics.
