Race day tasks

Food Table Setup Medium Priority

At least 4 more volunteers needed.

Details

Arrive early — 7am — to meet the food delivery and help set up the area. Bagel box and coffee dispenser setup and banana cutting are among the tasks after table setup is done. Closing off the food area until runners come in is the other helpful task - though hungry spectators occasionally gain access before the top runners cross the finish line. This is fine for hot drinks, but first crack at bagels should be for runners.

Location

Meadow parking lot western edge at food tent

Water table High Priority

Details

Water table volunteers organize the runners water table at the approximate halfway mark of the course.

Meet with organizer at show mobile and then carpool over to the location with enough time to setup water and cups for thirsty runners.

Direct the arriving runners to park the cars in the meadow lot as efficiently as possible.

Sometimes we don't know what to volunteer for but want to throw our names in the volunteer ring. Thank you for reaching out. By late March/early April we know more where additional volunteers are needed and can reach out to you at that time. Until then if you have a question please ask us at leathermansloop@gmail.com and we will get back to you. Closer to the race the volunteer spots may be filled but we still love to get contact information for potential volunteers in case some of our assigned volunteers have a change of plan.

Photography Volunteer Medium Priority

At least 3 more volunteers needed.

Details

We deploy a team of volunteer photographers out to various cool spots on the course. You don't need to be a pro, just willing to take lots of photos. Some of our photographers have used their phones while others have pro gear. Plus everything in between! The best photographer is the one that is there and gets the shot. Being there and putting yourself out there is half the battle!

Location

Various spots on the course - some places can get runners outbound and inbound. Some can be for the more mobile while others can be driven to.
