Participation Awards

​Our goal at Dick Pond Racing is to create a community of runners supporting one another, and we believe that participation is the key to being an active and visible part of that community.  In an effort to promote higher participation at DPR events and races, we have created participation award tiers, intended to reward all DPR runners that make an effort to be an active and visible part of our community.  We realize that every runner has their own unique reasons for running or being a part of DPR, so there are several ways to earn participation points toward our simple, three-tier award benchmarks.  Earn one point for each of the following categories:
  • Paid participant in a DPR race on our race calendar
  • Support your fellow DPR members at races on our race calendar
  • Help pace or volunteer at one of our DPR paced races
  • Volunteer, participate, and/or help organize DPR social events
  • Paid participant in races outside the DPR race calendar*
