Volunteering at Bandera
Posted on 03. Jan, 2007 by Brad in Volunteering
One of my goals for the year is to help out at more races. Volunteering is just a good thing and it will help me with the required trail work qualification when I decide to enter a hundred miler.
I got started volunteering back at the Sunrise Marathon in March of 2003. This was actually the last race Mickey Rollins directed (at least I was told so at the time). I worked the start/finish aid table along with members of HCTR.
Recently I helped out at the Murrell Park aid station at the Rockledge Rumble. I managed the split timing and helped the aid station director figure out who was still out on the course in the late stages of the race. I stayed there from start to finish and had a really great time talking to club members and meeting new people.
So this year at Bandera, I’ll be helping out with packet pickup from 2pm on Friday and then at the Last Chance aid station after I complete the 50K. I’m taking my tent once again (as I did in 2003) so it will pretty much be an entire weekend of Bandera!
