Over the last few years, we have spent more time working on developing the interest of teams to participating in the Run for Clean Air. By our definition, a team is any group of four or more people that register under whatever team name they prefer. Last year, we had 8 teams, and two team prizes were handed out for
  1. largest team, and
  2. fastest team time (calculated via the top four team member's times added together).
The team prizes will be day passes to Dollywood and Dollywood Splash Country. There will also 2 team raffle prize packs!

We very much appreciate all our teams' participation and thus developed this page to show off what teams are joining in the fun! See below for the teams that participated in in the past. Team photos are included (if have them)! In 2011 we will try to get pictures of all the teams that come to run or walk.

2007 Teams
In 2007, BWXT Y-12 actually had the fastest time and the most runners, but we give only one prize per team so Alstom Power received the fastest time award (as they were closes behind in 2nd place) while BWXT received the most runners award. Here's some photos of our 2007 Teams! Click any picture to see a larger version.
