We are back in person for 2022 and need your help!
Thank you for your interest in volunteering at the 39th annual Run for Education!
Volunteers are an essential part of making the Run for Education safe and successful and we need hundreds of volunteers to help make this annual event a success. We have positions that are suitable for Middle School and High School age students. We also have a few positions that are specifically for adults.
There are positions needed for Friday, Saturday Expo, and Sunday Expo and Race. The majority of the positions are in San Ramon (2700 Camino Ramon, directly across Bishop Drive from City Center). There are a few positions on Sunday that will be at Charlotte Wood Middle School (600 El Capitan Drive, Danville)l.
Although we do our best to place everyone in their preferred positions, we sometimes ask volunteers to switch to a higher need station. All volunteers will check in at the volunteer table at the San Ramon location, where they will be directed to their assigned location. The one exception is for the Danville positions – you will go directly there.
To register to volunteer, click here and follow the prompts
Notes:
- Read the job descriptions carefully. Some have age restrictions.
- Note the job location. Most are in San Ramon, however there are a few Sunday jobs at Charlotte Wood Middle School in Danville.
- You may register for up to three jobs on a single day. If you wish to volunteer for both days, simply repeat the sign-up process.
If you have any questions, please contact Race@SRVEF.org by email.
