Race Day:
Sunday June 5, 2011
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.
Pre-Race Refreshments
Time: 5 a.m. to 7 a.m.
Description: Refreshments will
be available for participants prior to the start of the races.
This will be self-service setup but we will
need people to keep the tables full of refreshments.
Finish Line Help

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.
