My school cannot afford to buy incentives. How should we award the kids?

Due to financial constraints, JUST RUN cannot provide incentives to schools and groups outside of specific locales. However, in the FORMS section, leaders can download and print the Mileage Incentive Cards to give to their deserving students at designate mileage accomplishments. Another idea is to purchase various colored ribbons to designate mileage accomplishments. What is most important is to recognize your kids' accomplishments in front of their peers. Have award ceremonies and have the children come to the front of the group to receive their Mileage Cards or awards; this is a very effective motivator and instills pride in accomplishment. Many schools request money for awards from the school's PTA and/or have local businesses/organizations sponsor or donate awards.
