Hey Brooklyn,
We have an opportunity to raise some funds for next summer by helping out with the Portland Marathon on Sunday (10/1). Friends of Brooklyn Park is looking for volunteers for the Brooklyn Aid Station. All you have to do is show up, no training session. The shift is 6:30am to 1:30pm. A half shift is ok too, 6:30am-10:00am or 10:00am - 1:30pm.
Volunteers need to be high school age or older. We will be passing out water, nuun (hydration beverage), power bars, frozen treats, bio freeze. We need a minimum of 20 people. Gloves are provided.
There are over 6000 people running the marathon or half-marathon representing all 50 states & 15 countries. Bonus other than the good karma and money going to our neighborhood program, you get a free t-shirt. It is exciting to have the race going through our neighborhood. Come be a part of the fun and energy. Make it a Sunday Funday!!
Ben Tarne and April Dewees will be the station captains. Please reply to info@friendsofbrooklynpark.org if you can help, along with your shirt size. The more people we have, then we can possibly shorten the shifts.
We are grateful for your help.
