RRC Ambassador TEAMS

Hey RRC Ambassadors

We decided that since all of you are runners and have used RunSignUp to sign up for races... we would make sign ups for the TEAMS through here. Below is the description of each team and what they strive to do to help RRC grow and continue being the BEST RUNNING STORE IN ROCHESTER....no...THE WORLD. 

You don't have to sign up to be apart of a team but we wanted to give people the opportunity to sign up if they would like to be more involved or have more direct input.  There are already team leaders for each team so by signing up you are not in charge of the team, just simply saying you'd be interested and willing to help!

If you'd like to sign up for more than one team you are welcome to do that.  You will just need to register for one and go back in and register for another.

Lastly team leaders were selected from people who expressed interest from the last survey.  The leaders can/will change over time and please don't feel that you were overlooked if you are not a team leader.  There are still lots of opportunities to help with the teams and please contact a team leader to find out what their needs are if you were hoping to have an even more involved role.  I am sure there is plenty of fun stuff to go around!
