Volunteers needed for glow-in-the-dark 5K run this Saturday
My business senior capstone group is putting on a glow-in-the-dark 5K (that benefits Love INC) this Saturday, March 16, and we are in dire need of volunteers to help at all times throughout the day. We anticipate having 300 participants, so I would appreciate any help our group could get. I hope you will join us for this community-building event!
Here is a list of volunteer positions:
Course Guides (up to 30 volunteers): Guides show up at Wheeler Sports Center at 5 p.m. Saturday. They will be in charge of guiding the runners at key junctures of the course, handing out water, and cheering the participants on. Course guides are asked to wear white shirts and will be given glow gear to wear and snacks. They will be assigned their posts at 5 p.m. and will help put together any finishing touches on the course. After all the runners have finished, they are free to join the post-race bash in EHS, where there will be food and music.
Set-up (up to 10 volunteers): Volunteers will meet at EHS at 9 a.m. Saturday. They will assist in putting together decorations for the post-race bash, making signs for the course guides, and setting up for registration. Volunteers will be needed until at least noon, and breakfast will be supplied.
Post-Race Bash and Take Down (up to 10 volunteers): Volunteers will meet at EHS at 6 p.m. and will help do any last-minute set-up for the bash, help vendors set up their stations, guide runners from the track to EHS, and facilitate the bash. Volunteers are asked to wear white shirts and will be given glow gear and snacks. Take-down of the bash will take place at approximately 10 p.m.
Registration (up to 5 volunteers): Volunteers will meet in Wheeler at 5 p.m. They will hand out race packets, register new runners, and assist in the pre-race activities. Volunteers are asked to wear white and will be given glow gear and snacks. They will also need to assist in final calculations once the race has begun, and are free to join the bash afterwards.
If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact me by e-mail.
Thank you,
