Assisting Club members where needed: passing out tickets, assisting with handing out cups, plates, helping older people carry their plates, etc
Helping people find their way, "Where are the bathrooms? Where are the trash cans? etc"
General clean up: if trash blows off of tables, gets dropped on the ground, left on tables.
We are also looking for cheer teams to spread excitement and to encourage runners along the race course! Cheer teams can consist of 5-10 people. Dress in a theme, make signs for the runners, bring music, and cheer!!! Runners will vote for the best cheer team at the finish line. Winning cheer team will receive a post 5K doughnut party!!!
Missing deadlines may result in the loss of program benefits. For example, seniors may not be eligible for certain scholarships. Students might not be recognized (with certificates, for example) at school programs. Finally, late forms may cause the student to lose continuous enrollment in the program.
