Get In Gear 2007 Corporate Team of the Year DRC had 46 corporate team members in the 2007 Get in Gear Thanks to Data Recognition Corporation of Maple Grove for making it possible to send Second Harvest Heartland over $4,000 in 2007 for their initiative in coupling their Healthy Measures program with their campaign for the Second Harvest Food and Fund Drive. Data Recognition Corporation also collected 1,277 pounds of food at their corporate offices for the Get In Gear Second Harvest Heartland food drive.  We are pleased to showcase DRC as our 2007 Get in Gear Corporate team of the year.  DRC’s  employees worked together (led by both their Wellness Coordinator and Marketing Department)  to raise over $2,072.00 which Get in Gear proudly matched. Data Recognition Corporation’s Healthy Measures program is dedicated to improving the health and wellbeing of all employees and their families by providing education, programs, and policies that promote a culture of wellness. --- "I think the biggest factor in our success was the coupling of the Get in Gear Wellness Campaign with the Second Harvest Drive.  People who didn’t want to participate in the race felt they had a way to participate through donating.  DRC believes wellness is about physical well-being, but also the larger sense of wellness that comes from generosity and helping a good cause.  The 2007 DRC wellness initiatives are stressing the mind-body connection and we are seeing growing participation in corporate volunteering in addition to more employees interested in physical wellness." Jennifer Engeleiter Wellness Coordinator Data Recognition Corporation

The Corporate Get in Gear division is a division that will allow the corporate participants to be pulled out of the overall results for a separately awarded corporate results division (but also included in the overall results). 

These results will be posted on our results page with the overall results and awards will be distributed accordingly.

All corporate teams must have one team captain who will enter the company as part of the corporate division. After the team captain registers, then all team members can register and join the corporate team. 

 

Team Captains:  If your company will absorb the cost of all of your team entries, you must contact the Get in Gear Race Director for set-up of a coupon code to allow your corporate participants to register without payment. A coupon code will be issued to any corporation processing a minimum of 10 registrations. . E-mail: Get in Gear

Corporate Team Members: If your team is not listed at online registration, you should contact your Team Captain to enter the information.
