Online Shopping Benefits Delco RRC 
Do you shop on the Internet? If you do, please check out iGive.com. When you sign up (for free) and designate a cause (like Delaware County Road Runners Club), a percentage of your purchases at participating stores goes to the club. And it's a long-g-g list of stores. So far, I’ve raised $27.96 for the club just by doing my usual online shopping. This was stuff I was going to buy anyway, so having money come back to Delco was an added perk. OK, $27.96 isn’t a big deal. But I’m just one person who does occasional online shopping. If more of us did it, we’d have more funds to support Delco activities—and less worry about fundraising.
How it Works
1. Go to iGive.com and type “Road Runners” into the keyword search function. Scroll down till you find us.
2. Then…shop. You can either shop the Mall at iGive.com or download the iGive Shopping Window (which automatically alerts you if and how much the online stores you visit donates). You'll see familiar names like Lands' End, Office Depot, JCPenney, Neiman Marcus, Aeropostale, Expedia, Barnes & Noble, Apple iTunes, Staples and eBay to mention just a few!
3. Watch the $$ roll in without anything extra coming out of your pocket. Shop within 45 days of joining, and an extra $5 donation goes to the club.

Wednesday Evenings at Swarthmore 
If you haven't been to one of our fun runs lately or ever, consider a Wednesday evening run in Swarthmore. It is one of our best attended runs, which means there will usually be someone there running or walking at your pace. Its also a very pleasant run through the Swarthmore College campus. Many runners make the 1/2 mile drive to Swarthmore Pizza for dinner and socializing following the run.
