SVR Race Sponsorship<\/strong><\/p>\n

SVR works with organizations in the community by helping to sponsor a race. Race sponsorship indicates that SVR members are actively involved in the race and race planning.\u00a0 We currently are not accepting any applications for sponsorship; however, we would be happy to consult about how to put on a race. Please contact Race Consultant Nancy Specht<\/a> with any questions. For general information on race directing and\/or how to put on a race in your community, check out the information below.<\/p>\n

Race Directing 101<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

SVR receives numerous requests to help with local races. Unfortunately, we are not able to help or sponsor everyone. We sponsor more than 30 races a year, including many that benefit local and national charities. Directing a race and raising money for a worthy charity is rewarding but very time-consuming, demanding months of advance preparation.<\/p>\n

Below, please find links that will help you understand the planning needed to pull off a successful, safe, and enjoyable running event.<\/p>\n
