Volunteer Positions:

Course Marshal
Course Marshals are our most prized and valued volunteers, as they assist us in ensuring the safety of the event. As a Course Marshal, you will be positioned on the Race Course at a designated area and will be responsible for keeping the Course clear of spectators. We will provide you with the appropriate training, equipment, uniform, and refreshments for the day, in support of this critical assignment.

Course Marshal Notes: This position involves standing and/or walking outdoors for more than three hours, and may involve moderate lifting/moving of boxes and/or supplies.

Minimum age requirement – 16 (Guardian consent required for minors)

Stage Crew
This is really where a set of helping hands comes in! If you’re in excellent physical condition, you don’t mind moving and lifting boxes, and you’re willing to assist our construction team, we have the perfect volunteer position for you. Join our stage crew and be a part of the “behind-the-scene” action that makes the Course come alive.

Marketing and Public Relations
A great opportunity for marketing and public relations students, professionals or enthusiasts. Volunteering for the marketing communications teams gives you first-hand experience in race-day press rooms, exposure to an international press corps and experience with our Race Communications experts. Are you available to assist with promotion and public relations functions prior to races? If so, we have a limited number of volunteer “internship” positions available as well. If you have website skills and wish to help with website maintenance or reporting, please volunteer for the marketing and public relations position.

We are particularly interested in those who can speak French, German, Italian and Spanish.
