Arrival Time/Location:
All volunteers need to arrive by 6:15 a.m. at Essex Steam Train, 1 Railroad Avenue, Essex, CT. An event manager will reach out to you with specific location details after you sign up.
Do I need to stand the entire time?
No. On course volunteers are welcome to bring folding chairs and sit whenever runners are not approaching or passing by. Station volunteers will have ample time to rest.
How long do I have to stay?
The course closes at 11:00 so all volunteers should be finished and on their way home no later than 12:30. If you are only able to volunteer for a portion of the race, please us know so we can schedule accordingly.
