We will have 2 separate parking lists. 1. General parking and vendor parking 2. VIP parking- (sponsors, honorees & special guests.
* Water Stations Along the Course- Fill cups of water at water stations along course. Maintain filled water cups for runners/walkers as needed. Clean up post race throwing away all empty water cups into trash receptacles.
* Food and Beverage Tables- Cut Bananas, oranges, bagels, as well as set up tables. Additionally hand out to runners and walkers before and after they run/walk.
* Course Direction and cheer stations- Positioned at various key points along the course, volunteers will point or hold signs to keep runners on the proper course. Cheer the runners and walkers as they participate in the race. Volunteers are taken key points along the course to offer directions to athletes. They will be giving directions by pointing or holding a sign with an arrow to point the runners in the correct direction.
* Event Day Registration- Welcome athletes, collect registration information, distribute race packets, race t-shirts and goodie bags. Distributing the athletes bibs', and a number of safety pins when athletes give their name.Volunteers should have information available to give athletes answers to common questions such as where the start/ finish line i, where the course map can be located, when the run/walk starts, where to pickup shirts, and where to results will be posted.
* Tee Shirt Volunteers- Volunteers work behind tables handing athletes their t-shirts after the athletes have registered and have a bib number. The bib number is marked with an X in the area not to be torn off and returned with the shirt to the athlete. (moving some heavy boxes required)
* Banner and sign Hangers- Banners and signs will need to be hung and positioned in the staging area and along the course. These volunteers should be able to climb ladders and string banners on rope.

* Breakdown and Clean-up- All volunteers are asked to assist with breakdown and clean-up of the course start to finish line area and event plaza.
* Depending on the race, Kiddie Fun Run Course Volunteers positioned along the Kiddie Fun Run course, to ensure all participants follow and stay on course. Volunteers also will be needed to hand each child a finishers ribbon at their finish line.

As an A5 Events volunteer you will be fed and hydrated.

If you have any friends or family that may also be interested in volunteering, please have them sign up through the website or show up with you on the day of the event. You will be assigned a job at the event. Without our amazing volunteers, this race simply would not happen. So, on that note, thanks and we look forward to hearing from you.
