Members of the Club believe that running enhances both the health and happiness of its participants. The Club, in furtherance of this objective, will promote and encourage recreational running in the Fredericksburg community through education of the community on the benefits of physical fitness and sport. The club may hold group runs, fun runs, championships, races on the road or track, and time trials; may put on lectures, demonstrations, and social events; may print and publish books, magazines, and newsletters; make awards; conduct fundraising events; and do all such other things as may be conducive to the encouragement of running.
