It takes over 400 volunteers to create the magic of race day. This is a great opportunity for school teams, families, and individuals to get involved and help our participants have an AMAZING race day experience. We will happily donate $150 to school or non-profit groups that bring out 15+ individuals. Visit our volunteer portal to see and sign up for all of our opportunities.
