Volunteers

In addition to our registration fee, the Ragnar folks require every local team to provide 3 volunteers to complete a shift during the race. The requests for volunteer assignments will be filled using the order of team sign up. Our early registration number (69 of 650) should assure that our volunteers get a shot at the good jobs and schedules. This year Traci’s sister was working a first aid station at 2:00 AM :(

The requirements for a volunteer are as follows:
• Be at least 16 years old and have a valid drivers license
• Provide their own transportation to and from their assigned location
• Wear their official volunteer T-shirt while at their assigned location
• Be physically able to perform their assigned duties
• Be willing to fulfill any assigned volunteer time
• Be willing to fulfilled their entire shift at an assigned location

It may be a little difficult to get people to commit this early, but it would not be a bad idea to start soliciting friends and family now. In the event we can’t find 3 volunteers, we will have to purchase them at $120 a head. I think it’s only fair that if a team member can con someone into volunteering, their obligation has been met, and they should not have to pay for additional volunteers if needed.

Thanks everyone,
