General Volunteer High Priority

May 23, 2026

Details

We need volunteers for various spaces. In general we need volunteers to arrive at 8am and be available until the last runner crosses the finish line, which we anticipate being no later than 11am!
Positions needed:
Packet Pickup (sign runners in, pass out bibs/tshirts/bags)
Course Directions (stand at a turning point and direct runners which way to go)
Course pickup/last to walk the course (carry a bag and grab any dropped garbage or items)
Water aid station (Set up table, pour water, pass out water, take care of surrounding trash, take down table)
Pass out finisher medals (hand out those awesome medals!)
Mange post race refreshments (Set up tables, manage trash, restock table with DONUTS)

If you have a strong preference for what you do, please leave us a note, otherwise we will fill in based on strongest needs. Some runners may volunteer before the race for packet pick up or after the race for take down. We are thankful and flexible with whatever you would like to give us!
