US Trail Running Conference announces Race Roster sponsorship

The US Trail Running Conference has announced that Race Roster, the fastest growing endurance registration website in North America, are the new  Presenting Sponsor for the Trail Race Director days for the 2017 event. The fifth annual US Trail Running Conference is held in partnership with the American Trail Running Association (ATRA), October 11 – 14, 2017, and takes place at the historic Stanley Hotel, Estes Park, CO.

The team at Race Roster has worked with trail running events both in the US and internationally, with race directors benefiting from their user-friendly technology to launch new events and grow existing events. A secure transaction system and convenient customizable dashboard presentation makes it easy for race directors to track and visually see how an event is progressing and growing. Marketing and social media solutions have enabled race directors to increase both registrations and revenue. Perhaps their most important feature is their renowned customer service that has been highlighted a key feature by many race directors in why they have switched their business to Race  Roster.

Sessions for Trail Race Directors will be held on the afternoon of Wednesday October 11, and continue on Thursday, October 12, and Friday, October 13. Race directors will enjoy interactive speaker panel sessions, two networking evenings, an expo, as well as  individual presentations from industry experts.

The focus for the trail race directors segment of the Conference is to build trail running connections in our communities, learn how to develop brand partnerships, and understand how to be creative in marketing technologies. The net effect is to enable race directors to manage events that result in successful, financially viable, and sustainable trail races for athletes of all abilities.

Rob Tranter, Race Roster senior business development representative says, “The Senior Leadership team at Race Roster has been impressed with the growth of the US Trail Running Conference over the last 4 years. Race Roster exists to make event  organizers’ lives easier through event technology. We are excited to contribute more to this conference and the growing trail running scene in North America for years to come.”

Terry Chiplin, Event Director, and owner of Active at Altitude, adds, “We are  delighted that Race Roster has increased their participation level for the 2017 US Trail Running Conference. We are confident that Race Roster’s passionate involvement, along with the other key sponsors of the Conference, will help us build on the dynamic foundation established in the first four years of the event, resulting in an even more  successful Conference this October.”

The American Trail Running Association (ATRA) also announced in January that Race Roster had become the newest partner in their Event Standards Program, that assists trail race directors in meeting the 15 criteria necessary for staging a safe and  well-organized event.

Options for registration for the US Trail Running Conference include the trail runner day, or just one or two days of the  program. See registration details here.
