Lake to Bay Volunteer Page

Thank you for volunteering your time for the Lake to Bay event! Volunteers are essential to ensuring a safe and fun event can be had by all! Lake to Bay begins at 5:15am with the first wave of Ultramarathon runners, and participants should be finished around 7pm on Saturday, July 6, 2024. Most volunteer positions are in 3-4 hour segments, starting as early as 5:30am, and concluding by 8pm. Volunteers may register for more than one volunteer position (segment), as long as they can make it to their second volunteer spot in time.

Volunteer Positions:

  • Exchange Monitors: Oversee incoming and outgoing runners, ensuring safety, and signing off teams as they pass through. Supplies provided: Exchange Board, Exchange Monitor Team Check-Off document, Course Packet (map included) and First Aid kid.

  • Course Monitors: Ensure runners continue along the course to the next exchange, safely crossing intersections, and abiding by pedestrian traffic laws.

  • Bike Course Monitors: To help oversee the safety of the runners, bicyclists are asked to ride along (behind or in front of) runners when necessary.

  • Course Sweeper: Follow the last place teams, picking up event signage and course markings.

Volunteer Registration

Next, complete the volunteer form. Note: volunteer positions may last up to five hours, but you are welcome to help out longer. If you wish to volunteer but can only be at a post for a short while, please make a note in the comments below (Example, Exchange 1 is 4.75 hours - we can split positions like this in half if necessary).

See the Volunteer Positions Google Sheet before selecting a position.
