Our volunteers are the most critical part to making our race a success. The Race Day Volunteers generally have a great time at the race and are appreciated by all of the runners participating in the race. We couldn’t do it without you! Take a look at some of the positions described below and let us know what you can help us out with – no training required!

Provide Water and / or Gatorade to the race participants as they pass each aid station along the race course. Manage the race materiel cleanup.
Finish Line
Provide Water to the race participants, hand out finishing medals and / or perform timing functions for the race finish.
