Volunteering for the Mathews Marathon
Thanks for your interest in assisting with the Mathews Marathon & Half Marathon. As you can imagine, pulling off an event like this requires a small army of helpers – and that’s where you come in. Whether you’re able to help as a volunteer or as a sponsor, we need you!
EMAIL: christine@mocva.net with your availability on race day or to ask questions.
Volunteer Expectations
Your station along the race course can vary in the set up: a simple table with self-serve mini water bottles and gel packets (we provide) OR use the back-end of a minivan or pick up truck in lieu of a table. We’re really looking for cheerful faces and positive mo-jo to encourage the racers as they pass you.
Marathons and Half-marathons are major milestones for many runners: often they are once-in-a-lifetime events. And whether you realize it or not, you are going to be a big part of their memory.
Our sincere appreciation,
Wrightly Reed, Race Director
Christine Johnson, Logistics
