Disposal of excess race premiums:
Premium items (shirts, hats, visors, socks, etc.) are under the control of the race director for the period from purchase to 60 days after the race.  At that time the items come under the control of the PRA Treasurer.  The Treasurer will attempt to dispose of these items at a reasonable price that the market will bear.  After a one year period, the treasurer will dispose of the remaining inventory to a church mission or charity that will use the items at an out-of-town location.  If no church or charity can be found, the treasurer will dispose of the items as he/she feels is the best method of disposal.  

Bib #1:
The number 1 bib is reserved for Fenner McConnell at all PRA races.

Running under a ficticious name:
 Important Note:  Questions have been raised in the past about runners registering for a PRA race under a ficticious name.  After checking with national running organizations, our insurance provider, other running clubs and coaches , the board has come up with the following answer to the questions.
Policy: The PRA does not advocate the use of fictitious names during our races because
such names create the potential for confusing and delaying results and the possibility of delaying care and/or notifications in the case of medical emergencies.
However, the PRA will not establish a policy to detect, disqualify, or ban an individual for using a fictitious name while registering for our races. The PRA will attempt to discourage the use of fictitious names by only acknowledging the person by the name they are registered under.
If they should win an award, the award will be presented under the registered name and all race results will reflect the fictitious name. It is each individual runner's responsibility to be respectful and considerate toward his/her fellow racers.
This policy applies to fictitious names, only. Racing under a false age, sex or name used to gain advantage in a race will result in disqualification from the race.

  In Addition:  The volume and quality of comments on the ficticious name issue has prompted the PRA board to   develop rules for posting messages on the PRA bulletin board.  

1. Any post failing to meet any of the criteria listed below will be deleted.
     A. Contains language which would not be appropriate on prime time network television (Networks such as ABC, NBC or CBS/ Does not include cable networks that have different standards).
    B. Input includes a personal attack directed at another person or the author of  another input (Personal attacks  include name calling and inappropriate accusations)
        1. If the message contains only an attack, it will be deleted without any explanation or other replacement  input.
        2. If the message contains an attack plus other discussion material, it will be deleted and a replacement message from the bulletin board moderator will be inserted indicating it replaces a part of a deleted message and the material is open for discussion.
    C. Use of words or language which may be offensive to the moral standards of this community, i.e. use of words  or statement referring to religious beliefs.
     D. At the point where inputs become obviously redundant, repetitive inputs will be replaced with a synopsis of  the trends and input information.
     E. If a person continually makes inappropriate inputs, the person will be banned from the bulletin board.
     F. Any advertisement with the exception of recruitment for local races will be deleted.
    G. Any messages including photographs, artwork, other media or a link to another  site containing such  information will be deleted.
    H. If the inappropriate inputs are the majority of inputs posted on the bulletin board,  the bulletin board will be  shut down. The board will have a special meeting to determine when the bulletin board will be returned to  operation.
     I. A copy of any deleted message will be saved by the bulletin board moderator for 3 months.
