Build A Better Second Wind
The Build a Better Second Wind program (BBSW) was implemented several years ago as a way for the club to thank members for all the hard work that keeps the club afloat. The program is designed to recognize and reward volunteer participation in club activities. Such participation is the life blood of the club. Prizes, which consist of great running gear from Body n' Sole, are awarded to the top 20 point-getters at the club's annual Holiday Banquet.
How do you participate? You can attend the fun runs, volunteer at races, sponsor a new member, write a newsletter article, or attend a board meeting. No need to keep track of your points during the year. All points will be recorded by board members or coordinators.
