Call for Interest - JP Morgan Chase & Co., Corporate Challenge


MCC wants to enter a team in the JP Morgan Chase Corporate Challenge.  Thank you to those who have already expressed interest in joining our team.  Our goal is to have at least 75 participants before the college would move forward to finalize our participation.  Continuing in the spirit of the Making Change Count initiative, join MCC’s Corporate Challenge Team!

What began modestly two decades ago with 816 participants from 76 companies in Highland Park has evolved into the most widely-anticipated road race in the area. A total of 9,102 runners and walkers from over 412 companies took part in 2010. It marked the seventh consecutive year the race has topped 9,000 entrants.

Rochester 's support of the Corporate Challenge can be tangibly measured by this statistic: No other race in the 12-city, six-country JPMorgan Chase Corporate Challenge Series has more “per capita” participation (number of entrants compared to metropolitan area population). Rochester also drew more participants than two significantly larger cities in 2009 — San Francisco (5,376 entrants) and Sydney (6,829).

The registration fee is $30 per entrant.  It will be held at the RIT Campus, Tuesday, May 24, 2011 at 6 p.m.  If you are interested in participating, please notify "mailto:BDavies@monroecc.edu" no later than Friday April 8th.  Additional information to follow.
