Select Staffing Sponsors 4th International Marathon and Half Marathon

Select Staffing has supported and sponsored the event for all 4 years of its existence.

“Select Staffing is proud of our Santa Barbara roots, and we cannot think of a better way to support our community than through the sponsorship of this event. We view this as an opportunity to extend our commitment to ‘extra-mile service’ to our fellow citizens and share our passion for determination and persistence in everyday life,” says Steve Sorensen, Select Staffing Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.

Race participants and the general public are invited to the Select Staffing Santa Barbara International Marathon Expo taking place on Friday, November 9 from 10:00 a.m. and 8:00 p.m. at the Earl Warren Showgrounds. Registration packets and marathon information will be available for pick up, along with vendor booths sharing the latest developments in running, health & fitness, travel, technology, and more.

In conjunction with the Expo, Select Staffing will be hosting a canned food drive benefiting the Foodbank of Santa Barbara County. All are encouraged to bring non-perishable food items or monetary donations to Select’s booth at the expo and will receive a prize for their contributions. Select Staffing is confident that, with the help of attendees, they will meet and exceed the donation numbers achieved in 2011.

“The participation in the food drive we held last year was astounding,” continues Sorensen. “The generosity and compassion from race participants shined brightly through their contribution of over 2,000 pounds of food and $1,100 in cash donations. The partnership that we have developed and cultivated with the Organizing Committee, event volunteers, and the Santa Barbara Foodbank has brought a great deal of joy and pleasure to our company. We are all counting down the days until we lace up our running shoes and hit the pavement.”

Select Staffing has extended a special invitation and complimentary registrations to their clients and colleagues with a VIP package that includes:

· No-cost entry

· Weekly customized training emails from Race Director Rusty Snow

· VIP tent at the finish line equipped with recovery food and beverage stations and post-race massages

· A Select Staffing “Running Goodies” gift bag

The Food Drive will occur on November 9 at Earl Warren Showgrounds from 10:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. Earl Warren Showgrounds is located at 3400 Calle Real Street, Santa Barbara, CA 93105.
