Volunteer roles vary and have specific arrival times. Please review the categories below and choose one that best suits you!
7:30am Start: Field Team > Finish Line
Field Team volunteers setup and break down team site flags, manage our exciting start and finish line, and support program participants as they complete the 5K by guiding them safely back to their coaches. Assembling flags and some heavy lifting of sandbags and will be required. This is a critical role, and we encourage you to join us early in the morning. :) All volunteers must complete a background check.
8:00am Start: Registration & Activity Station Teams > Course Support
