Langlauf 10K XC Ski Race

Sun February 4, 2024 Mead, WA 99021 US Directions

Course Marshal High Priority

Minimum met, 2 volunteer spots remaining.

Details

Course marshals stand at trail junctions, cheer for racers and guide them along the course, and keep non-racers off the course. There are typically 2 volunteers per junction, with the exception of Junction 4 which is a water stop and typically has 4-6 volunteers. Course marshals must arrive at their assigned junction at least 20 minutes prior to the start of the race. If volunteers choose to skate, they need to take an alternate route (mountain view, larch, lodgepole). Once the final racers and ski patroller pass the junction, volunteers are free to ski back to the lodge.

This is an outdoor position; volunteers need to come prepared for cold/wet conditions. We recommend bringing warm boots to change into or a foam pad to stand on, as well as a warm jacket and snacks.

Check-in time at Selkirk Lodge: 8:30am
Pre-race meeting with Race Director: 8:45am
Deadline to be at assigned junction: 9:40am
Race Start: 10am
