A couple of days without new volunteer signingup. We still need a few more for RRRC Sweetheart 8k this Sunday. Race marshals, water stop & finish line.

Pete, is there a course map for this one? The course has changed, I understand. Is there same-morning registration or last-minute volunteering? My schedule is hectic right now because of my show at art6 so I am reluctant to commit. Answers to the above questions would help me to decide. Thanks, Pete.

Mitzi,

   Thanks for asking.  Anne got all the registration volunteers, Sat and race morning, before we were able to get volunteer registration fixed to get it set up.  All registration spots are full.  What is needed now are full race volunteers and that would mean being there for the whole race.

   Of course we still need volunteers for Huguenot, but you are probably going to use that as one of your five (three?)

Thanks, Pete, for the info.

Yes, I want to use Huguenot as one of my three Grand Prix races. I may be able to do course marshaling for Sweetheart if you still need volunteers on race day.  Is there a course map? Often as a course marshal, volunteers will be asked by runners about where the next turn is. Both as a back-of-the-pack runner and as a race volunteer it is helpful to be in the know about the route.

Mitzi,

     There is a very good course map.  Email me and I will send you a copy, volunteer@rrrc.org

I believe there is also a course map if you go to the links on the home page under Sweetheart.  The copy I can send you is easy to print.  There is same morning registration and, as always, walk up volunteering.  Try to be there 7:45-8am for walk up volunteering.  I believe race day registration starts at 7:30 but it may be earlier.  Check on the home page. 

    I will have a limited number of race maps available on race day-mostly for volunteers.

Race map? Can't find online and haven't received. It's going to be a cold, early morning for volunteers and I'm trying to plan ahead!

I will get both to you and other volunteers today or tomorrow.  I have contacted registered volunteers for confirmation and will add you to that emil list when I get back to all.

You can go to the homepage, click on race details under Sweetheart and then click on course to see the map.  I will send out the other one later.

I never signed up officially since I was emailing with Anne.  Since I am doing registration and then hopping over to finish line,  I will go ahead so you know you have enough folks on finish line.

Thanks, I see that now.  Others will move over from registration to finish to help out.  We will probably cover that by race morning, counting walk ups.  I will keep you in mind for a late in the race race marshal on race day if we look to have finish covered and can use a couple of volunteers for the last couple of turns.  We did that last year.

Thanks, we will begin getting race marshals out at 7:30 and may need some more there or at the water stop.
