Water/Aid Station High Priority

March 19, 2021

Details

This spot is for running a water stop or what we call an Aid Station. You will be responsible for setting up the station, filling cups with water and sports drink and will hand those out along with energy gels to the runners as they pass. This is a very active position with very little down time. Groups of 3-4 are preferred for this position, so sign up with your friends. You will need a car with a large cargo area to take your aid station equipment out on course with you (Equipment includes folding table ~4ft, 2 10 gallon water/gatorage containers, one aid station box, cardboard boxes for trash). Most cars can fit all of this, but not with passengers. Hatchbacks, SUVs, Vans or small trucks are best, but you can make pretty much anything work. You will pick up your equipment at the race venue and then head out on course to get it all set up.

3 Aid Stations available - 1. Avery Park, 2. North Willamette park at Crystal Lake 3. South Willamette park at Goodnight Ave.
