The Prairie Inn Harriers society is managed by a Board of Governors and several Venue Coordinators.
Early each year 5 to 12 members are elected as directors on the Board at an AGM with responsibility to oversee club goverance, finances, administration and operations. In addition to the elected directors, Coordinators are appointed to manage certain club responsibilities and tasks throughout the year.
