Volunteer

Running events take plenty of people behind the scenes.

Why volunteer?

Help keep our club running

Volunteers help with race registration, timing, course marking/setup, marshalling, water stations, equipment and event pack-down, merchandising, social media publicity notices, etc and much, much more

You don't need to be a runner, and you don't need to volunteer every week.

Even helping at one event makes a difference.

Ways you can help

Without our volunteers, the Club cannot provide the support to our running community.

We encourage all our members to give back just a little bit. Talk to a committee member or email us if you can come along to any race and help with set-up, course layout, registration, timing, cutting up fruit, looking after the BBQ (generally a sausage sizzle), drinks table or pull-down.

These jobs don’t require any skills, just a bit of your time. Ask family and friends to come along and support you – by helping before, during and after the race.
