Help Needed with Triathalon Fundraiser

Coach Behrens has organized a fundraiser for the Black Diamond Triathlon at Nolte State Park in Enumclaw, WA. This will be our 3rd year participating. The volunteer coordinator has reserved our spot once again. The information below explains the ‘in’s and out’s’ of the fundraiser and the possible money that can be made in a total of 2 days. The job descriptions are listed below along with the number of volunteers that are needed.

1. Fri June 19 10am – 5:00pm SETUP AND TEARDOWN START/FINISH:

Help setup down all the finish line equipment (tents, announcer tower, sound equipment, tables and chairs, flagging, finish chutes, bike racks, etc.).

Volunteers needed: 10-15 ($25 per hr/volunteer)

*Kentlake has school that day, so we need volunteers who have the flexibility in their schedules to participate on Friday.
*5pm is the release time; if equipment is set up prior to 5pm.

2. Sat June 20 6am – 2pm DAY-OF-RACE – REGISTRATION, COURSE MONITORS, WATER STATIONS

Includes packet pick-ups, monitoring the different courses, giving water to racers, setting up for lunch, and the different registration processes for racers.

Volunteers needed: 30-40 ($10 per hr/volunteer)

3. Sat June 20th 11am – 4:00pm TEARDOWN TO FINISH RACE

Help tear down all the finish line equipment (tents, announcer tower, sound equipment, tables and chairs, flagging, finish chutes, bike racks, etc.).

Volunteers needed: 10-15 ($25 per hr/volunteer)

Here is what we need:

We have the majority of girls signed up for the day of the race. A few girls were checking on availability.

1. About 8 more volunteers to help with set-up/take-down. Again, those can be the same people or we can use other volunteers from the 30.
2. About 15 more volunteers for the day of the race. Remember we can have up to 40 volunteers for the day-of-the race jobs.
3. Email me back and let me know what crew you can help out with: set-up/tear-down OR day-of-the-race crew.

We can make close to $5,000 if we fill all positions. This is the only fundraiser for Summer/Fall of 09, other than concessions during games, ticket sales, etc. during season. Please email Coach Behrens and let her know your availability. We appreciate your time and effort. Also, if you have any additional questions let Coach Behrens know as well. Just a side note: the kids tend to have a lot of fun during the day!
