Rat Race returns to CENTRAL
Following last year's successful inaugural event, the fun, fast-paced CENTRAL Rat Race, organized by Hongkong Land, will return on 28th October 2007.

During the event, teams in business attire race around CENTRAL passing a briefcase instead of a baton and conquering obstacles such as 'Fast Track', 'Job Maze', 'Corporate Ladder' and 'Executive Training Boot Camp' all along the approximately 2.5-km course. It's all in good fun and it's for a good cause as well. Last year's inaugural CENTRAL Rat Race raised in excess of HK$2 million for MINDSET.

Y K Pang, Chief Executive, Hongkong Land, said, "With over HK$2 million raised last year, it demonstrates the importance of working and caring together."

Adam Keswick, Governor of MINDSET, said, "Last year's CENTRAL Rat Race helped raise awareness of mental health issues in Hong Kong, and we are pleased that MINDSET has again been selected to be the beneficiary of this year's event."

The Rat Race is open to teams of men and women who are over 18 years of age, of any nationality, and who are legally employed by the participating company. A maximum of 50 teams, each comprising eight team members, will be accepted for the event.

In addition to the Rat Race, a senior executive from each participating team is also eligible to take part in the 'Big Rat Race', which covers a shorter route. A new race is also being introduced to this year's event, the Iron Rat Race, for 50 individual contestants selected on a first-come, first-serve basis.

Each team needs to make a donation of HK$50,000 to MINDSET for the Rat Race, while an additional HK$10,000 is required for the Big Rat Race. The minimum donation for entry into the Iron Rat Race is HK$1,000 per individual. Several fun awards will also be presented, including the 'Big Rat Cup,' 'Turtle Award,' 'Fancy Rat Award' and Iron Rat Race Award. Entry forms may be downloaded from the CENTRAL Rat Race website (http://www.CENTRALratrace.com).

鼠戰2007攻陷中環
延續去年首屆賽事的成功，置地公司將於二零零七年十月二十八日再次舉辦緊張刺激的「鼠戰中環」接力賽。

「鼠戰中環」參賽隊員須穿上一身行政人員裝束，以公事包代替接力棒，在中環長約二點五公里的鼠戰賽道上發足狂奔，沿途還須克服重重障礙，例如「成功之始 踏步上征途」、「衝出迷『工』 尋覓新方向」和「衝上雲霄 力爭再上游」等。它不單是有趣的競賽，亦是一項富有意義的籌款活動。去年首屆「鼠戰中環」就為「思健」籌得超過二百萬港元的善款。

置地公司總裁彭耀佳表示：「去年的賽事籌得超過港幣二百萬元，顯示努力工作與關懷社群可以並行不悖。」「思健」董事艾特•凱瑟克先生說：「去年的『鼠戰中環』有助喚醒香港市民對精神健康的關注，我們十分高興『思健』今年再次成為活動的受助機構。」

「鼠戰中環」歡迎十八歲或以上、任何國籍、並在同一公司工作的男女組隊參加。參賽隊伍最多為五十隊，每隊由八名隊員組成。

此外，每隊可派一名高級行政人員參加路線較短的「鼠王爭霸戰」。而今屆賽事亦新增了一項名為「鐵鼠爭霸戰」的個人比賽項目，最多接受五十人參賽，先到先得。

每隊參賽隊伍須捐款最少港幣五萬元予「思健」；如額外捐出港幣一萬元，則可參加「鼠王爭霸戰」；而參加「鐵鼠爭霸戰」的最低捐款額為每人港幣一千元。此外，大會將頒發多個有趣獎項，包括「至尊鼠王盃」、「慢條斯理獎」、「至靚老鼠獎」和「鐵鼠盃」等。參賽表格亦可於「鼠戰中環」網頁 （http://www.CENTRALratrace.com）下載。
