Details

The role of a sweeper is to either maintain position with the last runner to ensure all runners are safely off the course all while picking up any race materials (arrows or flags) that might have been placed on the course to direct the runners. Please make sure that you do not pick up arrows that might be at various intersections where runners are double backing or merging from another location on the course. Only pick up the arrows as you “see” them in the direction of the race.

An email from our volunteer coordinator will be sent out the week of the race detailing your volunteer duty and how you can claim your race entry for this event or a future event
