kick off meeting
HEY EVERYONE! PLEASE COME TO OUR KICK OFF MEETING! Our virtual kick off meeting will be on Tuesday, September 29th starting at 8pm! Here is the zoom link to attend the meeting. Typically, we go over all the details on practices, meets, volunteering opportunities, apparel, running routes, etc. You will get a lot of information on this season and how to stay involved. SEE YOU THERE!
Running for yemen
As many of you already saw on Facebook, our volunteer coordinator, Ethan Sharp, has been talking to the Michigan Running Club about a virtual running fundraiser event. Yemen is the largest humanitarian crisis in the world, and we are raising money for UNICEF. Ethan has all the information on his facebook post but the general outline that the Michigan Running Club set up looks like this:
Step 1: Set up your individual fundraising page!
Step 2: Promote your individual campaign page to friends and family!
Step 3: Run!
Step 4: Enter your mileage!
Please head over to Facebook and look at what Ethan posted!! Thanks y'all!
