Getting Organized

***UPDATE: Camp Today 8/26 will be determined at 3pm due to Weather
We're excited for our second week of camp this week, beginning today from 4-5:30pm at RPI by the Meijer trailhead.

Our schedule is finalized. We've loaded it into Dick's Team Manager, a team management app that integrates with your electronic calendars and supports team communication.

Please download the app (LINK) and get connected to the team and your runner. If we have your email address, you likely have an invitation already. If not, please search "RPMSCC" from inside the app. Once there, check whether we have your runner already. If we already have him/her, just add your parent account. If not, please add your runner and parent account(s).
