PLEASE VOLUNTEER!
Membership in a club like Reston Runners provides so many opportunities – scheduled runs on well-planned and marked courses, hydration support, various social events, diverse developmental programs, and a few races. It takes a lot of work to make all this happen. Please sign up to volunteer and give back to the club that has and continues to provide so much to everyone.
The club needs you to step up and volunteer to help. Many members are working hard to run our programs, mark our running and walking courses, organize social events, and other activities. Many of these activities have been managed by the Board and some dedicated program leaders/coordinators. It is time to share these volunteer opportunities (and responsibilities). Please consider volunteering for various activities or saying “yes” when a Board member or Program coordinator asks for your help. Sign up for opportunities by clicking on the link below.
