TEAMS Forming a team is a great way to encourage family and friends to participate in the ASCV 5K Run/Walk. Many families form teams to honor their loved ones with autism, while others form a group based on a place of work, club or civic organization. Over 50 teams participated last year and we are looking forward to new teams joining us this year.The easiest way to form a team is by registering online via this link www.firstgiving.com/asacv5k. You will be guided through the process as you register. The person who would like to be the team captain should register first and provide team name when prompted. Then, let your friends and family know that your team has been formed! When your friends and family register, they will be asked if they are joining a team and will be automatically linked and added to your roster. It's that easy! When a new person joins your team, any fundraising they do online will also be added to your team total. If teammates want to register via the mail in form, please be sure that they provide your team name. We will add them to your team in our records, but unfortunately, we can not add them to the group online. For this reason, we highly encourage team members to register online if possible.
