All Club Members must accept and agree to the Club Code of Conduct

• Always conduct yourself in a manner that will ensure a welcoming, respectful and comfortable Club environment for all.
• Always show respect and appreciation for the volunteers and officials who give their time to help the club and/or event(s).
• Never yell, taunt, bully, or threaten physical violence upon other club members, volunteers, race officials, or spectators. Members with a legal restraining order against them by another member may be barred from membership and participation in all club activities.
• Never use abusive, derogatory, or vulgar language; or make racial, ethnic or gender-related slurs or derogatory comments at club events or on social media.
• Always respect the age, religion, ethnic background, gender, and sexual orientation of other club members, volunteers, race officials, and spectators.
• Always behave in a manner that is safe and does not put you or others at risk of physical harm or legal liability.
• Never make unwanted sexual or physical contact with others. Members found to be listed on a sex offender registry, convicted of a sex crime, or caught having, creating, or distributing child pornography will be immediately barred from membership and all participation in club activities.
• Observe and obey all rules and regulations governing races – including those governing the sale or transfer of race bibs – and engage in fair competition. This includes anti-doping compliance, no course cutting, or other means of gaining a competitive advantage that is considered cheating when participating in club races or other races where you may represent the club by wearing a club-branded singlet, shirt, uniform, etc.
• Always report violations of the Member Code of Conduct policy, along with any supporting documentation (i.e. emails, texts, photos, etc.) to the Board in writing.
  • The Board will take action to review the complaint and any supporting evidence (and any response from the alleged violator) in a timely manner.  If a complaint is founded and depending on the severity of the violation, the Board has the option to consult legal counsel and/or local law enforcement to determine a course of action.
  • Anyone accused of violating the code of conduct will be presented with a copy of the written complaint with any supporting evidence. The alleged violator has the right to respond in writing to the charges within a reasonable time as determined by the Board. The Board will determine after reviewing the complaint and the alleged violator's response whether to perform further investigation if warranted, make a determination at that time or refer the matter to legal counsel and or law enforcement for further assistance.
