CAAC5 2018 - Call For Volunteers

Submitted by johnohara on

With just over a month to go, this is a call for volunteers for this year’s CAAC5.

This year’s race is on Wednesday 6th June, and entry is online only (no on the day entries). The Senior race is off at 7.30pm with the Junior race at 7.35pm. As with previous years, there will be a short briefing session at 7.00pm, giving you plenty of time to get to your position. Marshals bibs will be provided.

Attached is a map of the course indicating the Marshalling positions, and below is a list of the positions that need to be filled. Please feel free to add yourself to the list, or let me know you are available, and I will add you. Your prompt response would be appreciated!

Once allocated a position, please study the map carefully, and familiarise yourself with the locations, noting that the Marshals at positions 2, 3, 4 & 16 also need to be in place for the Junior race.

Look forward to hearing from you.

Hi everyone.

Submitted by johnohara on

Hi everyone.
 
Thank you all so much for volunteering for this year's CAAC5 which looks as though it will have another record entry!
 
I have emailed each of you your own copy of the Marshals Pack which contains a map of the route and confirmation of your Marshalling position, together with contact details should you need to get in touch with anyone once out on the route.
 
Please study the map carefully, and familiarise yourself with the locations, noting that the Marshals at positions 2, 3, 4 & 16 also need to be in place for the Junior race.
 
The Organising Committee have asked if helpers could aim to arrive as close as possible to 6.00pm to assist with getting the start area set up and directing entrants arriving by car to park in the appropriate places. We are also aware that the first 200m - 300m on Turnhouse Road from the start is particularly busy with traffic, and we may need some additional help to filter runners away from the middle of the road and on to the footpath.

Just to remind you, the Senior race is off at 7.30pm with the Junior race at 7.35pm, and I'll go over the detail at a short Marshals briefing at 7.00pm, giving you plenty of time to get to your position. Marshals bibs will be provided.

Look forward to seeing you all on Wednesday.
