Course Marshal - Age 15+ High Priority

↑ Back to Top

You must be 15 or older to volunteer for this task.

October 10, 2025

5:30 pm CDT - 7:00 pm CDT (At least 10 more needed)

Details

At crucial points along the course, there are course marshals whose job is to alert runners of any potential hazards, guide them through the route, keep an eye out for the safety of both the course and the runners, ensure that everyone is playing fair, inspire the athletes, and oversee any non-race pedestrian or bike traffic where the race course intersects with other paths.

Please note: As a course marshal, you may be assigned to critical intersections and often work alone. If you prefer a buddy system, only one person should sign up for the position. Volunteer hours can be verified later if needed. It’s crucial to fill each slot based on course requirements, and pairing is not guaranteed for those who sign up. If someone is under the age of 18, it is recommended that a parent or guardian accompany the minor.

A designated person-in-charge—who has been a member of the sponsoring organization for at least a year—must be present for the entire event.

Oktoberfest Games – Tear-Down Crew

↑ Back to Top

October 12, 2025

2:00 pm CDT - 3:00 pm CDT (At least 4 more needed)

Details

Help clear the Oktoberfest games area in Barth Park once competition wraps up. You’ll start by breaking down and stacking game equipment—kegs from tossing and rolling events, stein‐holding stands, costume contest props, and the stump station. Move the straw bales from around each game back to the staging area, making sure they’re neatly piled for reuse. Gather signage, cones, and any loose décor, and load everything onto carts or trucks. Pitch in with picking up stray cups or debris so the park grounds look tidy.
