Hello friends.....calling all volunteers! The Kettle Cooker Five & Dime would not be possible without the incredible support of our community. We could use your assistance. And just look at how beautiful this picture (above) is? You know you want to be there. Mentally.....I'm there.....right.....now. Please CLICK for details. Volunteers will receive a free Volunteer T-Shirt and a $25 gift card to Philadelphia Runner. Here's the rundown (pun slightly intended):
Setup – Help set up for the event. Start time is 5:00am on October 8. Please bring a headlamp, lantern, or flashlight.
Main Aid at Start/Finish & Water Station #1 – Help set up and manage the main aid station, which also serves as the 2nd aid station for the 10–Miler. Start time is 5:00am on October 8. End time is when the last runner comes through the finish line. Please bring a headlamp, lantern, or flashlight.
Water Station #2 – Help set up and manage the 2nd aid station. Start time is 6:30am on October 8. End time is when the last runner has passed through the aid station. This is a cup–less race, so you will be filling vessels that runners are carrying with them. Running and didn't know about the lack of cups? We got you! Here are some hydration vessels that would work great for this adventure.
Water Station #3 (You must be 21 or older to volunteer for this task) – Help set up and manage the 3rd aid station. Start time is 7:00am on October 8. End time is when the last runner has passed through the aid station. This is a cup–less race, so you will be filling vessels that runners are carrying with them. You will also be offering Fireball shots to 21+ runners. You must be 21+ in order to man this station.
Clean Up/Break Down – Clean up may begin when the last runner has come through the main aid station at the start/finish line. May take up to two hours for task completion.
Course Assistance – You will be placed on the course at intricate areas to direct runners. Start time is 6:00am on October 8. End time is when the last runner has passed the position you are managing. Please bring a headlamp, lantern, or flashlight.
A few other things.....
This is a trail race. We suggest trail footwear. Women's HERE. Men's HERE. Race sponsor Altra has a great selection…..check it out! And as always, feel free to jump into one of our 4 locations (Center City, University City, Manayunk, or Glen Mills) if face–to–face is your jam.
Lastly, THANK YOU! We couldn't do this without you!
