VOLUNTEERS WILL NOT BE NEEDED FOR THE 2021 VIRTUAL RACE. BELOW IS WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR WHEN WE RETURN LIVE.
Over 1,000 volunteers are needed to make the Oakland Running Festival successful. Volunteer opportunities are available at the pre-race Health and Fitness Expo and on race day. All volunteers will receive an event t-shirt.
Group Volunteer Opportunities: Please contact Lena Zentgraf ([email protected]) if you have a group interested in volunteering together.
NOTE: Water Stop volunteer opportunities are assigned to groups who commit to staffing the stop’s entire need. If your organization is interested in volunteering as a group at a water stop or in another capacity, please email Lena Zentgraf ([email protected]).
Thank you to our many water stop groups! And continued support from the community, see some of them here:
