Ride Leader Spending Guidelines and Reimbursement

2023-03-09 10:54 PM | Randolph Williams (Administrator)

Having a social activity tied to your ride is a surefire way to ensure a good time, make new friends and encourage camaraderie among club members. It could be as simple as offering coffee/donuts or granola bars at the start of the ride, including a lunch or ice cream stop along the route, having a swag giveaway or setting up snacks at the finish of the ride. We’ve got funds budgeted to help you do this as well as a social committee if you’d like help putting something together.

Any expenditures require pre-approval. For more information, contact the VP of Rides ridesvp@crw.org, or one of the Ride Coordinators.

Alcohol may be served at CRW social events but there are a few rules based on our insurance policy:

  • Having a ride finish at a location that serves alcohol, where riders are responsible for buying their own, is allowed.
  • If a Ride Leader is going to buy a round (with prior approval for funding), it must be available to all participants.
  • Having a picnic or BBQ at the end of a ride is great. Serving alcohol and asking everyone to chip in to pay for it is not allowed. With prior approval, CRW will reimburse for the cost of alcohol.

Any expenditures require pre-approval. For more information, contact the VP of Rides, or one of the Ride Coordinators. Receipts are required. Send a copy of your receipt(s) and a description of the expenses to the Treasurer: treasurer@crw.org.
