ONLINE REGISTRATION:

Online registration is now open! Click here to register online and set up your team!

**ATTN: Team Captains - Very Important**

Please be sure to register yourself and set up your team online before inviting others to join your team!
Online registration is strongly encouraged for team captains!

1. You must set up an account (email address, password, contact information, etc.) at www.RunSignUp.com to be able to be listed as a team captain within their system. If you register online, this is taken care of during the registration process. (If you registered online for Sherry's Run any year since 2013 with www.RunSignUp.com then you should already have an account set up in their system. Please just make sure that all account information is up to date - especially your email address.)
2. If you register by paper form, you can still set up an account on www.RunSignUp.com. Once on their site, just click on "set up" and fill in the requested information. It does not cost anything the set up an account. If you do this before you send in your paper form then we will be able to associate your name and paper registration as team captain with your team name when we enter it into their system offline.
3. If you do not set up an account in the www.RunSignUp.com system, we will not be able to associate your name and paper registration as team captain with your team name when we enter it into their system offline. Because of this, we will not have your contact information available for email updates, notifications when someone joins your team, etc.
