Calling Volunteers!

The races are fun... and we all know, they don't happen without a whole lot of volunteers.   Below are a couple of upcoming opportunities to volunteer!

Sunday Aug 19th:   The Rochester Track Club is holding a Trash Pickup prior to the annual picnic at Soldiers Field.   Trash pickup begins  at 4pm this Sunday, with the picnic following at 5pm.   The track club has adopted the trail that wraps around Soldiers field, lots of miles logged on those trails by many of us! -- come take part in both the trash pickup and picnic!

Saturday Augs 25th:  Team R.E.D. is providing a happenin' water stop at Rochester Half Marathon & 5K.   We've excelled in the area of making a fun space for runners to get the refuel they need, both via gatorade/water and with a lift in spirit.   We're returning to our Med City 2011 theme of Summer of Love!  Team R.E.D. will provide music, beer and lots of support!   I pulled out a couple pictures from the original Summer of Love water stop.. check it out, as it's so much fun!  ... and please drop me an email at byron.teamred@gmail.com if you're interested and available to help.
