Details

7:15 am: Volunteer Check In (school cafeteria). Assist the Youth Series Team Captain with registration (hand out bibs/pins).

8:35 am: Youth Run Series will begin with a half-mile run and one-mile run. Serve as "rabbit" to lead participants on either run, AND/OR assist with a "turnaround" AND/OR be a "caboose". Then distribute refreshments at the finish line to these participants. Since our Youth Run Series has been growing, at 8:35 am we must have AT LEAST SIX VOLUNTEERS: Two rabbits, two turnarounds, two cabooses, two possibly middle volunteers.

If the minimum # of six (6) volunteers is not met for the runs, we'll ask the onsite crowd if anyone would be willing to help run up to the mile.
