Off Track Events wants you!

All of you are in the inner Off Track Events circle. As past participants, your feedback and suggestions helps future events develop and grow in size. If you want more cowbell. Hey, you will get it!

The fall series is back! The Mayor's Cup (Columbia's Urban Adventure Race) and the XCX (Cross Country Xtreme) are right around the corner. These events promise to be the most original, fun-love'n adventures around. Last year participants were subjected to mud, explosions, air guitars, chain saws, albino bears, chickens and gorillas, floods, scavenger hunts, and other ridiculous spectacles of misbehavior. This year, there will be plenty of new surprises.

Getting the word out on the street has been a extreme challenge (how did you hear about these events?). It's more than this small crew can handle without self implosion. We need your help. Power in numbers!

For the 2008 fall series, we have a special project. We are looking for the top 10 fun loving, social networking, influential people out there!

In short we are looking to create a power team to help promote the upcoming events. It would be great to get a group built from across the state that can start spreading the word. You can promote anyway you like, and will be given an arsenal of material to work with! We don't want anybody to do anything for free. So we are giving you free stuff galore!

* Free team entry to the Mayor's Cup
* Free entry to XCX
* Free Off Track Events Nalgene Bottle
* Free LOL Run tote bag
* Free Off Track Events Koozie
* Free random assortment of stickers and a bonus surprise item!

We will also include the following promotional items to promote with:

* 20 Mayor's Cup Brochures
* 20 XCX Brochures
* 150 Mayor's Cup business card flyers
* 150 XCX business card flyers
* 50 XCX stickers (totally awesome!)

We will ship these items to you immediately, for distribution however you feel fit!
If you are interested in being part of the team. Please drop me an email at: offtrackevents@gmail.com

Please include the following information:

* Real name:
* Code name:
* Location:
* Why you would be a kick ass candidate:

We can only take 10 more of you for this project! So, please make sure that you speak up soon if you are interested!
