Want to volunteer for something, but are tired of "committees" and "meetings" and even "people?" Boy, have we got the opportunity for you! We are in need of a few good men and women to help race day go smoothly. Traffic control, race registration, and even the coveted beer stop spot. An hour(ish) of your time gets you a free race glass and a free fill of the drink of your choice. Plus you get to feel good for helping without all of that extra planning work. Message us or drop a comment if you'd like to help.

Race day is one week away! While we can't guarantee beautiful weather like today, we CAN guarantee a fun course, some friendly competition, and a commemorative glass with a free fill of a beverage of your choice. And for our racers 21 and over, there's even a beer stop along the way. And let's face it, after the year you've had, a beer stop sounds pretty good, right? What are you waiting for? Sign up today!

Here we go, friends! Registration is now open for this year's 4k and 7 Beers Ago Fun Run. Once again, gluttons for punishment can choose the full-bodied 4k(-ish) course or the savvier among us can do the "Run Light," the 3 block run that lets you tell all of your friends that you did the race without telling a lie. Either way, you get a commemorative glass featuring original artwork by the talented Tessa Schierer and a beverage of your choice to fill it up! Sign up yourself, sign up your friends, sign up your enemies at the link below.
