Race Day: Sunday June 2, 2013

 

Aid Stations

Time: 6 a.m. to 1 p.m.

(Consider Volunteering Your Group's / Organization To Work An Aid Station.)



Description:
There will be water, Sports Drink, GU GEL, Vaseline, band-aids, etc. available at set intervals along the entire marathon route. Participants may pass some aid stations twice. The number of workers at each aid station will range from six to fifteen. Each aid station will need one person designated as a "captain". The Captain will be responsible for coordinating his/her people, setting up and organizing aid station, picking up and delivering supplies to the station on Race Day. (Tables and Water will be delivered and picked up by marathon staff)


Aid station volunteers: will need to keep the tables full of cups of fluid, mix the Sports Drink, hand the cups to the runners that take them, allow other runners to get their own cups from the tables, shout words of encouragement, and assist participants, as requested. Personnel at each aid station will be responsible for picking up the trash around the general area of the station during and after the race.

 

 

Finish Line Help

Time: 6:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. (Support & Cleanup)

(Please specify your availability so we can schedule you accordingly)

Description: Several functional positions will be required at the finish line. Following the completion of the event, we will need volunteers to assist with clean up the finish area. This will entail taking down scaffolding, banners, barricades, tables and a general clean up of the entire area.

 

Course Marshals

Time: 6 a.m. to 1 p.m.

(Please specify your availability so we can schedule you accordingly)



Description:
Course Marshals will be stationed at various intersections and key points throughout the 26.2 mile course. Primary function will be to make sure all runners make the correct turns. We will have one person to call out the elapsed time at the halfway point of the marathon route. Four people will be needed at the turnaround point of the half marathon to direct people with half-marathon numbers to make the turn and to mark the numbers of marathoners that choose to switch to the half-marathon. We will also have one person stationed at the turnaround point for the marathon.

Finish Line Food

Time: 7:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.

Description: Post-race water, beverages and food will be available in the finish area. This will primarily be a self-service type set up but we will need people to keep the tables full of refreshments for the finishers. We anticipate having two-hour shifts for this area with five people per shift.
