We are starting to plan for next year's event - we could use some energetic people to help out in the planning. No experience is needed.
We are also soliciting sponsors for next year. Its an excellent opportunity for a sponsor to become involved with a great event for a good cause - Special Olympics.
If you would like to help out in a meaningful way or have any leads on a sponsor please send an email to jsrc@hotmail.com
To help employers, running clubs, or individuals plan and promote their local Run@Work Day event, the RRCA has developed a “Planning Kit” which can be found at http://www.rrca.org/programs/programs.html#P4. The “Kit” contains a sample press release for announcing local events, ideas for planning and promoting the event, and information on nutrition and running that can be shared with event participants. In addition, Run@Work Day events can be posted on the RRCA Calendar for FREE. Event organizers can use the special event code, Run@Work Event, when posting their event.
