CONSIDERATIONS

  • Do we want to offer other merchandise options [hats, pins, hoodies] that people may be able to order directly from the vendor?  Or smaller items at the event?
  • It may be a little difficult to add multiple pages to the existing website - do we want to consider a sister site that we link to for participants and to share the run info that people can also get the registration info from?
  • We have narrowed down the hotels to Timberline Lodge and The Resort at the Mountain, both of which have rooms available for our dates.
  • Biggest consideration right now is availability of food and gas near those locations
