IMPORTANT: Umstead Volunteer Reminder

I wanted to post a reminder to the Umstead Volunteers. Frank, Scott, Dave, and Michael are entered in the Umstead Trail Marathon located in Raleigh on March 7th. We are trying to encourage the RMEC to help volunteer, so we can 1) assist the Godiva Track club, and 2) promote Medoc by wearing Medoc shirts, hats, and medals.

We have been assigned the Trenton aid station that has fluids and food. It is at mile 10 and 19.5. You do not need to be there until 9:30 am, and there is easy parking. The first runners will arrive at mile 10 around 10:00 a.m. The last runner must be at mile 19.5 by 1:50 pm or they will miss the cut off. Although there are only 200 runners, you will have a steady stream the entire time you volunteer, so you will not be bored, and you will be very appreciated by the runners

Based on the last post, Ursula, Robin, Larry, Steve, and Ryan indicated they were going to volunteer. This is great, but more would be even better! If you have never volunteered at a race, this is a great chance to do it. You can make this as fun as you want it to be.

If you have not done so yet, please go to the Umstead site and fill out the volunteer request form. This is critical to their planning. Make sure you indicate the "Trenton aid station" on your request. If you do not already have a Medoc shirt and hat let me know. We want you to wear these at the event. Thanks!
