The Fredericksburg Area Running Club is proud to announce that in the past 5 years, we have donated nearly $95,000 to local charities. We encourage you to view the list of charities here.
Anyone interested in being a part of the FARC Social Committee, please contact Holly for more information.
FARC is looking for a volunteer to lead an educational committee. This person should be willing to set up clinics and educational opportunities important to the running community at-large, as well as attend FARC Board meetings. If you are interested, please contact Holly Bisbee.
FARC is also looking for a volunteer to head up marketing. We need someone specifically talented to help us promote the club and the races in the press and other clubs in the region. FARC's thinking is that once you get all the email links set up, it shouldn't take more than a couple minutes a month of your time. Anyone interested in becoming a marketing director for FARC please contact Debi.
