Volunteer Appreciation Social and Run Mark your calendars for the third annual Volunteer Appreciation Social and Run, to be held Thursday, May 15th at 6:00PM. We're looking forward to showing our appreciation to our volunteers through some friendly competition, dinner, and prizes. All members who have volunteered for water duty, trail clean up, RAW races, RAW-sponsored aid stations, or for general RAW duties are eligible to win prizes. Watch Facebook and next month's FOOTPRINT for more details. Haven't volunteered yet this year? There is still time to sign up for water duty to qualify for the prize drawing!
The RAW Board Needs YOU! Do you have ideas that could improve the club? Skills that would benefit the membership? Four positions will open up this July, and YOU might be a perfect fit. For more information about what is involved and/or how to run, contact RAW president Joe Luccioni.
Fall Road Trips The weekend of Oct 18, 2014 features two big out of town races that will attract many RAW runners. It's not too early to plan for these fun trips! The Palo Duro Trail Run, on Oct 18, features a 20K, 50K, and 50 miler. Registration is open for the 50K and 50 mile distances. Registration for the 20K opens on 8/1 at 12:00AM and will sell out fast. If you are interested, make plans to join the RAW caravan to Canyon, TX for the pre-race dinner, race day festivities, and post-race celebratory dinner. See website or contact Joe Luccioni for more information.
