Be a Volunteer!
Looking for a way to help your community? Volunteer with the Manasota Track Club! The MTC is a non-profit organization that helped raise over $222,000 in 2019 through various local races and awarded $10,000 in scholarships to high school seniors. Our volunteers are the core of MTC. Volunteer opportunities include packet pick-up, race course monitors, committee members and training programs. Without the time and talents of all of our volunteers, our club would not be able to fulfill our mission and support this amazing community.
Our 700+ members assist at more than a dozen events throughout the community every year, volunteering to serve as race directors, showing up early to set up, manning the water stations, recording time cards at the finish line, posting the results, and taking on countless other duties that make it possible for our racing events (and our club) to run so smoothly!
Our Volunteer of the Month Program* serves to recognize the outstanding volunteer efforts of our members. We have developed a point system based on volunteer activity. Your volunteer hours will be recorded and updated monthly for recognition on the website. (*Keep an eye out for this program post-pandemic, when more in-person events are permitted!)
Each year, before our awards banquet, a committee will also select the “Volunteer of the Year.” This award will not be based solely on the “most” volunteer points accumulated, but on other factors including the types of duties the individual has taken on, contributions they’ve made to our club and community as a whole, how long they’ve been a volunteer, and more.
