Our volunteer duties include a couple of things:

 

These are the following opportunities:

area. (Minimum 15 volunteers)

2.)           Post-race food- Volunteers will help pass out post-race food that is the following: pizza, ice cream, fruit, etc. (minimum 15 volunteers)

3.)           Timers- Volunteers are placed along the course at each mile marker with a stop watch to yell times to runners are they run by. (13 volunteers)

 

We ask that your group arrives at 7:00 a.m. (at your assigned location).  Once the last person has come through your location you are free to go.
