Postby **Marg** » Sat Feb 19, 2011 7:28 am

Hi, calling all water station volunteers.

For the 3rd year, I have offered race organizers to run the water station near Lakeside. If you are willing and able to join the fun again this year, please let me know

Date is April 10, 2011.
Last year was a blast!

If I don't race it, then I'd love to volunteer. Can't give an answer now though since April 10 is just a wee bit too far into the future to be knowing what my plans will be

If I can get someone to cover my shift at work (should be easy peasy, they know I love to run or volunteer!) - this newbie would love permission to help out too

Hey do I need an orange RM shirt for this???

I only have a black one! (though I ordered the cycle one!)

I think my 16 year old niece needs volunteer hours. She ran the 5K in the army run. Can I ask her too?

And my hannah really wants to volunteer. She'll be 2 this June ...

What are Hanna's rates ? :shifty:

She likes to chase empty water bottles around, chew on hair, and wrap her legs around you and kiss you ...

If your 16yr old is interest, I can sign off her forms and credit her 6 hours, regardless of how long you help. I did this with my son.

I'll throw my name in to the ring at this time and firm up closer to the date. Race volunteering is something I want to do more of this year! Thanks for posting!

ceileigh · Postby **ceileigh** » Wed Feb 23, 2011 6:39 am

My niece does still need volunteer hours so I'll plan to head your way and help out and she'll be there too. She is going to see if a friend of hers wants to come and I invited my brother (her father) as well as another friend of mine who is a runner and rm lurker. I think I am helping out at a fundraising dinner here in town that night though. Could be a long day LOL

I'm running the half this year so I can't volunteer, but THANK YOU in advance to all of you who do :-bd

My brother is in too so that is 3 for sure, possibly another 1 or 2 depending on whether my niece brings a friend from school and whether my running friend comes as well. Oh and maybe another 1/4 if the weather is good for Miss hannah to chase down stray cups :wink:

So if the weather is good do I bring my gathering drum to make noise on???? cowbells????

Postby **Marg** » Sun Mar 20, 2011 7:25 pm

Just bumping this thread. I'll pm those who volunteered to follow up with information on where to meet, time, etc.
Again, thanks for giving back.

For those racing, please make sure to give us a shout as you pass. It'll get us cheering that much louder.
