Yes, we need YOUR help!

If you have been part of our ultra-running community you are hopefully aware of that most of the races you run depend on volunteer efforts. If you are new, great! We are welcoming every new soul that enjoys running for long times through our georgeous landscapes, and we are certainly welcoming you if you'd like to share some of your spare time with us.

In order to put on a successful Skyline 50k every year, we need a lot of hands, and not only on race day. Well in advance (at the start of the calendar year) the preparations for the race start with securing sponsorhips, obtaining permits, promoting the event, and getting good deals on the things that make up the goody bags and awards.

Once, we get closer to the event, we'll need hands to:

Sort aid station supplies
Stuff goody bags
Mark the course

On race day we'll need:

Help at the start line, e.g. setting up, registration, etc.
Runners who check the course markings (before and during the race)
Aid station personnel
Course sweeps
Help at the Finish Line (food, timing, awards, and much more)

After 3:30pm our work does not stop:

We need to clean the picnic area
and to clean all the utensils that were used before they get moldy
