Lots of help is needed to make the Run Around the Square a success! We need helpers for tasks like manning the barricades (keep the course car free and safe!), passing out water, distributing t-shirts and numbers, pass out informational letters to residents...we have all sorts of jobs!

Wilkins School Community Center
Along course
In Fern Hollow

Take a lovely walk around the square and let residents know when the race is happening and how that impacts them. Task takes 1-3 hours depending on the number of volunteers.
We aim to deliver the letters about 1 week before the race. The time on the slots is not relevant as you are free to do the task at your convenience.

This is our #1 race day need! We have to keep the course safe for the runners. We do that by putting barricades out at intersections and staffing those with volunteers. Please note that we are once again asking volunteers to place their barricades as we don't have the manpower to set them all up in the allotted pre-race time. It is a 2 person job to set them up! If you are unable to set up but willing to man your barricade, sign up to volunteer and we'll get you the help setting up.
Location assignments can be selected. If none are selected, I will assign based on priority of intersections.

Along race course. If you have a preferred spot, let us know. First come, first served for locations but help is always (always!) needed.

Keep our thirsty runners hydrated and cheer them on! This is a fun job and a great way to support the race! Set up and clean up of the space is required; supplies will be provided. Great for a group- kids welcome!
3 locations- Lancaster and Hutchinson (both runs), end of the 1.5 mile and in the woods near the Frick Environmental Center.

Something extra special about RATS and generously supported by great volunteers! We have a great crew working on this stop but if you want to get in on the fun, I'm sure we could find you a spot!
