VOLUNTEER
|
Each year, this event enjoys the support of more than 400 volunteers drawn from runners' families, civic groups, church groups, friends, and neighbors who ensure the event runs smoothly and cheer participants to the finish line.
We encourage everyone to sign up online for a volunteer position to support the race and beneficiary. Consider building a team that can man a water station, help with food prep, check in runners before the race, cheer at the finish line, and hand out medals. Running the race? You can still help on the day before the race at packet pick-up, or the day of the race in a number of different capacities. All volunteers will receive a free long-sleeve cotton t-shirt! |
