Volunteer to Help With Marathon Water Station – It’s Loads of Fun!

Active Living Board Member Michael Harbin wants you!

“This year’s Publix Georgia Marathon will be held on Sunday, March 18th. Several thousand marathon runners will pass through downtown Decatur and once again we will greet them with water and Gatorade at the mile-13 “Downtown Decatur Hydration Station” across from the newly renovated Courtyard by Marriott hotel on Clairemont.  We need 35 volunteers to put this together.

Last year we were voted by the runners as the best waterstation on the marathon course. Once again we have an opportunity to win $1000 for the non-profit of our choice engaged in promoting physical fitness. More than that we have an opportunity to have fun, promote Decatur and cheer on the brave souls participating in this marathon as they pass the halfway mark on their 26.2 mile Sunday morning trek.” Interested?
