Great role for families and groups! This key role is not just about providing hydration support — but moral support and excitement! As our participants travel the course, they may get fatigued; but with your smiling face and cheering attitude, you will revive them! Duties include setting up the station, filling and stacking cups with water, restocking cups throughout the course of the morning, handing beverages to participants as they come by, and finally cleaning up the area when the last participant passes. Getting wet and standing for long periods is required for this role. Volunteers must be 16+. Younger volunteers are welcome to help cheer on the participants!
