ROAD RULES

• Respect yourself and others that took the time to be here.  That means no negative language or conversations that may make anyone uncomfortable.

• “For Queens, For Everybody” isn’t just a cute tagline.  We live it, especially the second part.  No matter your age, religion, ethnicity, political views or gender/sexual orientation, everyone is welcome to run with us and will be treated with respect. 

• Stay safe in these streets.  We run in the busiest city in the world.  Keep your head on a swivel, respect traffic and keep yourself and others safe.

• Be mindful.  Although we don’t have an “official” membership, if you choose to put on a WFRC shirt or tell others you are apart of this crew, you’re in turn representing not just yourself but all of us.  Take these rules of the road with you if you choose to represent us.

World’s Fair Run Crew (WFRC) is a project started in 2019 by 3 Queens, NY natives who looked to provide a third space for their community in Flushing. Running, whether it was for sport or for fun, impacted each of our lives in a significant way.  This is an impact and passion we seek to pass on to those who choose to run with us each week. 

• Membership; if you show up, you’re a member.  We do not charge a membership fee.   

• Fundraising; we raise money by working with brands we feel represent our values or by creating reasonably priced apparel items for purchase.  100% of profits received are reinvested back into the crew.  These funds help us create signage and flags, purchase cheer zone items, provide food and drink and put on events. Founders & captains do not receive financial compensation for their work with WFRC.

• Race bibs; spots we receive through NYRR are generally prioritized for runners who are seeking to run a specific race for the first time.  If that doesn’t apply, they are released via Heylo on a first come, first serve basis.
