Why Volunteer?
You can support your racer(s) by taking part in the race in
a different way.
You can see these endurance races and meet the racers
1st hand--huge entertainment, personal rewards,
community involvement and lots of race experience gained
without actual registration. Racers understand what a big
part of the race that volunteers play, and they are very
thankful to see you!
Volunteers that commit to and spend at least 8 hrs (for the
Sprint/AR races) or 3 hrs (for the trail races) in one day
may receive a free tshirt (1st 20 volunteers), free camping,
free meal(s) and discounted future race registration fee.

What would I do?
Manned Checkpoints: Staff checkpoints throughout
event. You will have direct interaction with racers and will
be responsible for checking and recording each team and
their time when they arrive. You may also check gear and
render assistance when needed (communicating issues
with race director). Older children (usually over 12 yrs old)
are great for this position as long as they are paired with an
adult driver (except for trail races--no driving necessary).
Registration/Timing: Assist staff with racer check in and
registration, monitor event timing and record finishers final
times. Need basic administrative and math skills.
Event Safety/Medical: Monitor racers at remote locations
for signs of medical or physical problems. Must have a
minimum of CPR/Advanced First Aid current certification or
higher. ATVs or bicycles may be used in these positions.
Water Safety: Monitor racers during water sections of the
race--ranging from ponds to creeks to lakes to rivers. Must
be able to throw rescue device and perform basic water
rescue if needed.

| What else? Volunteers will need to attend a pre-race meeting for the Sprint and Adventure Races. It is usually a couple of days before the race. If you live out of the area and can't make it to the meeting, information will be forwarded to you via mail or email. If you are at a manned checkpoint, you will probably want to bring a folding chair, cell phone, snacks and drinks for the day. Volunteers can only share "authorized" race information with racers. |
