Special Feature		Survey Results December 1st, 1998 We've finally collated the results of the survey. There were 16 responses. All members were polled. The notable trends are: many people who don't come on long runs would like to know there is someone of their own pace only 4 people thought the fees too high, and 2 of those qualified their responses (we should have a student rate, and we should get more even if we had to increase the fees) of the people who suggested another time or day for the long runs, 3 picked saturday, and two suggested starting later. many people would be willing to lead runs occasionally almost everyone thinks seminars are a good idea. Full details below 1. I would come to group runs more often if they were held at a more convenient time/day (please specify) they started at a more convenient or interesting place (please specify) [I broke these out below] 6 - I knew that there would be runners of my own pace 3 - they were longer 1 - they were shorter 4 - there was a good eating or drinking opportunity afterwards 10am - 1 vote 9-9:30 - 1 vote Saturday - 3 vote unspecified other day/time - 1 vote 10mile+ 1 vore 8-12 miles 1 vote Other ideas - hills consistency (start the same place each time) 5 - I would be willing to lead group runs from time to time 2. Club Dues. Our club dues ($100 p.a.) are lower than some clubs with professional coaches, higher than some others. Considering what CRC provides (year round coaching, excellent web site, group runs, organized relay trips, etc.) do you think that the dues are: 4 - too high 10 - reasonable 2 - amazing value should either pay less or get more (clothing, discounted race entry, more coaching) should have student rate (otherwise good value) should be able to work 1-1 w/ Fred 3.
