Re: Promotion Activity For TWCM - Need your Help

[Krishna Kumar]

Thanks for everyone who has signed up to help out!!!!

We are planning on kick starting this from tomorrow - Sunday October 28th.  I will have more details available before the end of the day.  But here are some initial thoughts/requests:

• Please update the attached spreadsheet with your email address as well.

• Body Fuelz has been signed up as the hydration partner for the TWCM.  They have also agreed to support our weekend promotion effort by supplying kiosks, supplying some hydration fuel (probably sachets of electrolyte etc.).  I will have more details on exactly what they will provide and how much support later this evening.
• Chennai Runners has agreed to fund any other fuel supplies you may require such as bananas, water, paper cups etc.  So please start thinking about what you need.  We will refund the expense.
  
• I have pamphlets of the event available - Would you be able to pick it up from my place?  (Contact details below).  Otherwise need to figure out how to get it to you.
• I also request you to request your family/kids/neighbors to help out.  WIll be a cool weekend activity for a couple of hours and typically grown up walkers/runners etc.  get enthused by the energy of the children!!
• We need additional help in some of the other areas - such as Marina.  Request some volunteers
  
• Let me know if you have any other thoughts and ideas on this

We at Chennai Runners require your help in promoting the The Wipro Chennai Marathon to be held on December 2nd in various areas around Chennai.  The idea we have is as follows:

1. Identify key areas around Chennai where a large group of fitness minded folks congregate.  This could be parks, stadiums, gyms/fitness centers, areas like Marina etc. etc.  ( I have identified some in the attached file that I am sharing below).  Please feel free to add to this list.
   
2. On either a Saturday or Sunday morning - say from 6 AM to 7 30 AM, a group of us will hang out and promote the event by sharing brochures, flyers and answer any questions folks may have
3. If there is an interest we could consider having some goodies like bananas or fruits available as well
   

I have created a spreadsheet that is stored here.  I have taken the liberty of adding some names.  Can you please populate this sheet with your interest to volunteer as well as add other locations in Chennai that you think are appropriate?  We have hardly 5 weeks to go and want to ensure that the word about this event is spread. 

Please let us know if you have any additional ideas and thoughts on this subject.

Regards

Krishna

My apologies to those who have signed up for not being able to trigger this last weekend.

  Now we are ready. 

We are going to kick start the above initiative in 4 locations on the following days.  We are keeping the locations and days restricted to see what the initial response looks like.  We can scale this up accordingly.:

Boat Club - Sunday

MRTS Velachaery - Sunday

Elliotts Beach - Saturday

Marina Beach - Saturday

Body Fuelz (our Sports Drink Partner) has agreed to provide a kiosk and necessary hydration supplies for the above days and location.  

Can you please review the below spreadsheet one more time, make any necessary changes.  We are still in need for some volunteers for the Marina Beach area.

I will revert back with the logistics details by tomorrow.

Regards

Krishna
