MCRRC Volunteer Survey

July 14, 2010

MCRRC is dependent upon volunteers to stage our low key race series, major area road races and training programs for runners of all abilities. The MCRRC Volunteer Committee is charged with finding ways to encourage more members to volunteer and ensuring that the volunteer experience is easy, fun and rewarding for new and veteran volunteers.

This poll was produced by the Volunteer Committee and we invite input from both current and non-volunteers. Survey responses will be collected beginning July 14, 2010 and we expect the survey to be available for approximately two months. Please only take the survey once as that will help to give us the most accurate results. Comments or questions may be emailed to: volunteercommittee@mcrrc.org.

Privacy: Survey responses will be used solely for club research purposes and will not be shared with with any third parties. Survey results will be made available to club members and individual comments will be sanitized of personal identifiers before being made public.

Thanks for your input!

MCRRC Volunteer Committee,
Karen Craney (Chair), Karen Kincer, Don Libes, Kimberly Price
