Teams: We Couldn't Do It Without You!

Teams are the backbone of the Komen Southeast Wisconsin Race for the Cure®. Over the past eleven years, team captains have been incredible leaders in building Race participation and were instrumental in helping us achieve our 2009 goal of 13,000 participants and raising over $1 million! Starting a team is easy and fun. For more information on Starting a Company Team, Joining a Community Team or General Team questions, email us at Komense.teams@yahoo.com.  

A team is any group of 10 people or more who want to participate in the Race as a group.  This group may consist of friends, family, coworkers, church and civic groups, schools, children, or any combination thereof.  Team members do not have to participate in the same event.  A team can have participants in the same eventn or a combination of events (5K run or walk, Komen mile, etc.).

There is no limit to the number of members you can have on your team.  However, your team must have a minimum of 10 team members by the team registration deadline: September 3, 2010.  If your team does not meet the minimum number of participants needed for a team, the team captain will be notified and all team member registrations will be changed to individual participant status, dissolving the team.

The first step in forming a team is designating a team captain.  Komen Southeast Wisconsin relies heavily on team captains as an extension of our volunteer base to help with communications, team tactics, recruiting, and goal setting.  Team captains have ongoing contact wtih the Team Committee to support you throughout your Race journey.  It's all about TEAM WORK!

Team Tailgate

Team Tailgate is a planned area for teams to meet and rally before and after the Race. We are encouraging teams to be more cohesive - to bond and to celebrate pre-Race and post-Race. Bring a cooler, have lunch, grill out - whatever your plan, make sure to celebrate your teams’ accomplishments in Team Tailgate. 

By reserving a 12’ x 12’ spot in Team Tailgate, you are giving your team a premium spot near all the race activities for your team to rally together before the race, pose for team photos, will be available for pre-ordered lunch for Team Tailgate teams for convenience and good food.  Stay tuned for more information as the Race gets closer.
