Below are descriptions of our volunteer needs:
Post-Race Refreshments - Sunday, May 20th, 8:00am – 10:30am The PRR crew will set up the post-5K refreshments in the start/finish chute prior to the start of the 5K. Once the participants depart, the refreshments (and tables) will be repositioned inside the chute and ready when the finishers arrive. After the 5K you will assist in cleaning up the food area. Must be 18 years or older.
Finish Line Monitors - Sunday, May 20th, 8:00am - 10:30am Cheer on the girls as they finish the 5K, while acting as course security. This volunteer role will be very fun, but you will also need to be able to keep the finish area clear, which will require a firm, loud voice. Must be 18 years or older.
Course Marshals - Sunday, May 20th, 7:30am - 10:00am Help keep participants on course and motivated! Course marshals play a very important role in the production of the 5K. Volunteers must be punctual, upbeat, and ready to serve rain or shine! You will need to remain at your post until the last runner/walker passes.

All safety runners will complete an online background check, at no expense, prior to 5K day. Must be 18 years or older.
Cheer Station - Sunday, May 20th, 8:00am - 10:00am Cheer on the girls as they complete our 5K. No age restrictions- just come prepared to be an enthusiastic spectator along the course!
