The Club has openings for people with enthusiasm and who want to get involved with the Club.
Among the things we need are the following:
Volunteer Coordinator - someone (or even a group) who can stay in touch with our members
and work with other organizations in helping to maintain a strong and vibrant volunteer cadre.
Our Events which benefit many local causes and charities can not be put on without the dedicated
"volunteerism" of all involved. The person or persons working this position will be rewarded with
the knowledge that their efforts made a really significant contribution.
Publicity Coordinator - Someone who can work with the media (newspapers, broadcast,
internet) and provide information on upcoming events as well as results and stories about
completed events and articles of interest to the general community. The Club throughout the year
performs many acts which generally are not recognized - such things as our Adopt a Family,
Support of victims of September 11th, support of youth running in our community, events which
benefit such causes as the Foodbank, Special Olympics and many others. This is an exciting
position which will be very interesting for anyone who would like to work with the media.
Date Base - We continually need to maintain our database of runners and associated information.
This position requires someone who can enter information into a database or spreadsheet and
maintain the information for event mailings and emails.
Accountant - Someone who is familiar with filing of tax returns for non profit organizations,
familiar with state and federal regulations regarding non profit status and who can do the
appropriate filings throughout the year.
If you are interested in volunteering please let our President, Adele McDonough know and she
can answer any questions. Email Adele at president@jsrc.org or call our hotline at 732-542-6090
and someone will get back to you promptly. This is your chance to get involved in a growing club
dedicated to our community in wich we live and "run".
