Volunteer Opportunities
“To the world you may be one person, but to one person you may be the world.” — Anonymous
The simple fact is this: We need you, we love you and best of all we will give you a super-rad t-shirt in exchange for you missing a little sleep! If anyone out there in Southern Utah volunteered for the St. George Ironman, you know how cool you felt after your service at the event. Personally I wore my Ironman “volunteer” shirt for a week straight after I did!
Sign-in, Friday 6pm – 9pm, Saturday 6am – 6:30
This would include helping runners with the sign in- handing out race bags and helping with set-up and take down, if you are super-friendly and extremely nice this is a great place for you!
Start Line
Anything and everything to help us get going early in the morning, making and serving hot chocolate and treats – you would have to be up early for this! But this is an awesome place to be!
Course Officials
You get to hang out – and make sure that everyone completes the course – you can even bring your ipod and blast out that ?? song that makes you feel like dancing! Go ahead, the runners will love it!
Finish Line (medal hanger)
You are the person who puts the medal over the head of the runner at the finish- it doesn’t get any better than that!
Aid Stations
Water, Gatorade, fruit, gel, and a heaping helping of “hey – great job,” ” you guys rock,” that’s you. You will be out on the course early and be there until the racers have run past you- think of it as a party with about 4-8 of your best friends and a couple of thousand guests who drop in for a drink or a snack!
Medical Stations
The runners will LOVE you, and you will stand 2 inches taller at the end of the day from all the compliments that are heaped upon you from runners who will need things like: moleskin, Vaseline, massage, icy-hot, bio freeze, etc.,
Cheerleaders
(this means ANYONE who wishes to cheer on the runners- no, you don’t have to wear a skirt or do back-flips- but if you can, we won’t stop you)
If you are loud and not shy- this is the moment that you have been waiting for- if you had been running for 20 miles how would you feel if someone yelled out “Hey- Dude you are totally rockin’ it, great job!” or “You go Girl, – you just blew past that guy like he was standing still”- that would be cool huh? Well here’s your chance!
Other Opportunities
We will also have many other opportunities available for a variety of volunteers as we move forward closer to race day, if you have any questions please contact me; Chris Mathisen at chrismathisensr@gmail.com or 435-680-0705
